No objections, +1.

While it seems convenient to have (e.g.) the list of maintainers directly
in the source tree,

a) developers already know where to find it, no matter if in Misc/ or devguide/

b) others first have to find it anyway, and it's better to find when embedded
   in the rest of developer-related docs

c) everyone can commit to the devguide as well as to cpython

d) people should get used to multiple repos with hg coming

Same goes for developers.txt.
