I see. Does it mean Mercurial package goes away as well?
Short answer is YES. There is longer answer. I am really sorry about it. Mercurial is one of the biggest disappointments for me in this whole saga. Whatever I think about it (and I don't use it anywhere), it is obvious that it is very important program and even more important format. I am quite certain there are zillion of lines of code stored in Mercurial repositories of both open source and proprietary programs, there were parts of Python 3 development which were specifically tailored for it (bytes formatting in Python 3.3, I believe), and yet no company owning those lines of code managed to put down enough cash to make that port happen. Mozilla, Oracle, Facebook all have huge repositories with their flagship products in Mercurial and yet AFAIK porting efforts are now in state "testsuite almost passes" (I may be mistaken, I hope I am mistaken, it was some time when I looked). I still hope the port will be finished and at least some barely functional Python3 version will be available, but we certainly don't have resources (and frankly, interest) in doing so ourselves. For users it is I believe the final call: get out of Mercurial NOW, so poorly supported program couldn't be foundation of your projects.
