If one goes to http://hg.python.org/cpython/ and clicks 'browse', it defaults to 2.7, not to default (now 3.3). Moreover, there is no indication that it is defaulting to an old branch rather than current default, as one might reasonably expect. I found this very confusing when I was trying to get a link for a python-list post and the code did not look right.

I reported both of these issues previously here:

http://bugs.python.org/issue15491

For the second issue, I wound up filing this issue (noted in a comment on the above issue):

When one clicks 'branches', default is listed under 2.7, instead of on top, where it should be.

I hope someone can fix both these issues. -- Terry Jan Reedy
