I agree with Gianluca.  If it was my repo, I'd have it on my own site.

But you're the lead, Chris, and I don't really care where the trunk
lives ;).  Gitorious hosting would encourage Gitorious integration
though, which would definately help with mindshare once it happens.

I'm not really sure what their features are good for, once you get
past "free hosting" and possibly greater visibility.  Having a single
server would, for example, make it easier to auto-build the Sphinx
docs after every commit.

Are you suggesting moving to a joint trunk?  I'm still a fan of "pull
what you want" development ;).

Or as a final commit message in the bzr repo.

Sounds good.
