"No longer" is confusing. See issue86: the note should say that the
current demo installation is not life. This is fairly urgent.

That's my proposal, yes. "two weeks" may be a bit optimistic, as Brett
suggests (reasonably) to wait after 2.5.1 is released, but depending
on how long steps 1..4 take, we should wait atleast two weeks.

See issue86: if we switch bugs.python.org now, we may have to preserve
bugs.python.org/<id> in the process, i.e. redirecting it to SF. Notice
that this is different from bug.python.org/issue<id>, so I think the
two can coexist.
