Hi,

The new development repository is
https://secure.ucc.asn.au/hg/dropbear

That has all the old monotone history imported, with branch
names changed. I'm not quite sure the best way for you to
switch to that server.

I only noticed your github conversion after getting the
Mercurial repository going (with a fair bit of hassle) -
when I tried using monotone's git export a while ago it
didn't seem to export proper branch history. It all looks
fine in Github there though. (Or perhaps it was that
git->mercurial conversion didn't preserve branch history, I
forget).

Cheers,
Matt
