Seems like there is finally getting some movement into the whole "get Mercurial a new website" project with a repo (incl. forks) being created on bitbucket.org. I don't really know how official that whole thing is but at least mercurial-scm.org looks way more sexy than the "classic" MoinMoin-based site. From what it looks like right now, the whole project still seems to be in its early stages content-wise but it's definitely a very important step into the right direction.
Over the years, even Git got a very flashy intro-page and Mercurial and the community-size/popularity seemed to have stagnated size-wise thanks to the missing "marketing". I really hope that the folks behind this new site will help push Mercurial quite a lot :D
Let's hope we can sharp it and remove that terrible "this site is not finished yet" bar at the top asap.
