I think it's perfectly fine to have hg.python.org/distlib and do what you
described.
It can mature there - it does not bother cpython or other repositories.
One advantage of distlib being on bitbucket is that anyone can fork it
and create pull requests. I've been doing that recently on a number of
projects, and it's a very efficient workflow. I don't know how the
workflow would go if hg.python.org was used, but I'd be much less
likely to contribute code if I had to create a patch, submit it via
the tracker, and manually maintain it in a local copy of the code
until it gets accepted.
But then, unless I am mistaken, you have to ask each contributor to sign
the agreement to avoid any issue
the day it goes into Python.
I think you can mirror hg.python.org on bitbucket, see below
Maybe it's possible to integrate hg.python.org with bitbucket - I see
bitbucket allows you to create a repo by forking an externally hosted
Mercurial repository, but I've never tried it, and I don't know if
pull requests would work.
bitbucket has hg.python.org mirrors IIRC - there's one for cpython and I
guess we could ask one for another repo ?
