Hi guys,

I got a mail today that the hg-scm.org, hg-scm.net, and hg-scm.com
domain names will be renewed in five weeks. I notice we (dsop) also have
mercurial-scm.org registered.

Do we need all of them? Has anybody got some statistics about how many
hits we get through each domain?

If we do need them, could someone configure the webserver at
mercurial.selenic.com to issue 301 redirects for all the other domains
back to the canonical mercurial.selenic.com name? I assume that's the
site we want Google and other search engines to see as canonical.

As a comparison, git-scm.org is setup to issue a 301 Moved Permanently
back to git-scm.com. The git-scm.net domain is hosting something related
to git-svn as far as I can tell.
