I think it would be a good idea to host a temporary svn mirrors for developers who accesses their VCS via an IDE. Although, I am sure anymore if supporting these developers (if there are any) would worth the trouble. So, think of this as optional.

Any decision to have or not have such a feature should be stated in the PEP. I personally don't use IDEs, so I don't care (although I do notice that the apparent absence of IDE support for Mercurial indicates maturity of the technology) I can spend some time on Mercurial integration for the main IDEs in use by core devs, I'm sure the PIDA folks have most of this sorted already. It would be important to have these (and any other non-PEP worthy tasks/helpers) listed with some detail, e.g., in a wiki page. Well PIDA is the IDE-hater's IDE, but yes, it has excellent Mercurial integration (probably the best integration of any system). It is all through anyvc with a small amount of user interface added. I am sure this would be easily portable.
