I just switched hg.python.org from a OSUOSL VM to a Rackspace VM. The new VM is a bit beefier and has what I think is better network connectivity, so hopefully that will improving the speed of repository operations. We also now support HTTPS for repository browsing and cloning, so update all your links to https://hg.python.org! IPv6 support has also returned for those who like that sort of thing.

Note the host keys changed, so you'll probably have to futz with known_hosts to quiet ssh down. I apologize, but I noticed that that the current RSA host key is 1024 bits, so I decided to upgrade it to 2048 during the transition.

Thanks to Donald Stufft for helping me set this up.
