Not surprisingly, people are still attempting to browse and/or checkout
Python source from svn.python.org. They could be following out-of-date
instructions from somewhere or might be expecting the svn repos are
mirroring the hg ones. This causes wasted time and frustration for
users and for us following up on issues.
Could some text be added to the svn browser pages to at least indicate
that the repo is no longer being updated with a link to the
hg.python.org browser? I'm not sure what to do about the repos
themselves if people attempt to do an svn co. Perhaps that should just
be disabled totally for python?
For what it's worth we've had a couple of emails about this to
webmas...@python.org (in particular because the viewc svn browser breaks
on some latin-1 in source files).
All the best,
