I suspect if we make sure we add Bitbucket and GitHub login support to the issue tracker then that would help go a fair distance to helping with the GitHub pull of reach (and if we make it so people can simply paste in their fork's URL into the issue tracker and we simply grab a new patch for review that would go even farther). Chiming in horribly late, so hopefully this hasn't already been mentioned (I've only loosely been following this thread). In addition to the login support (I'm not sold on how much that would help the reach), I think it would be really beneficial to have some documentation on either emulating git-style workflow in hg or detailing a git fork workflow while working on multiple patches concurrently and keeping master in sync with hg default (or perhaps even both).

As far as I'm aware, the easiest way to do that by using git-remote-hg to treat the CPython Mercurial repository as a git remote (although I've never tried it myself).

Cheers, Nick.
