This thread seems to beg for a decision. I think Donald Stufft has it exactly right: we should move to GitHub, because it is the easiest to use and most contributors already know it (or are eager to learn thee). Honestly, the time for core devs (or some other elite corps of dedicated volunteers) to sysadmin their own machines (virtual or not) is over. We've never been particularly good at this, and I don't see us getting better or more efficient.Moving the CPython code and docs is not a priority, but everything else (PEPs, HOWTOs etc.) can be moved easily and I am in favor of moving to GitHub. For PEPs I've noticed that for most PEPs these days (unless the primary author is a core dev) the author sets up a git repo first anyway, and the friction of moving between such repos and the "official" repo is a pain.
