I've asked this question before: Dirkjan indicated that he will be writing a web redirection filter that translates from the SVN rXYZ revision numbers to the Hg hash value that corresponds to that revision in the history conversion. I suggest that we also run a version of that redirection filter to remap the old svn.python.org links in addition to making them accessible through hg.python.org as Dirkjan proposed. Cheers, Nick.
