'Othertools' page in a shockingly bad state

[Christopher Jefferson]

I am a beginner mercurial user. Just today, I googled for 'mercurial 
gui'. The first link is: mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/OtherTools . Looks 
good. Let's have a look through the first few options?

TortoiseHg - seems fine, but for some reason I can't get it to run on my 
machine (but this is a seperate issue).

but, now things go bad quickly:

HgkExtension - Oh, included by default with Mercurial. That must mean 
it's good? I'll just use that. Except when I click on it, I'm told it is 
an 'unloved feature', and only kept for backwards compatability.

Push Me Pull You - never released, not updated since 2008
gpyfm - Webpage gone, wiki page tells me it has "unresolved bugs and has 
been shelved"
meld - good diffing tool I've used before
Diffuse - released version old, but might be under active development.
hgdiff- not updated in about a year, couldn't get to work
hgct - tells me it hasn't been updated since 2007 on this very web page!

Seeing as this page is the first thing that comes up when searching for 
mercurial guis, I would suggest (as a user) this is a very important 
page, particularly as users looking for guis might want some hand-holding.

I would personally recommend a complete-blank approach, and listing just 
2 or 3 (at most!) GUIs, which users can trust. Having a separately 
linked page with a list of all GUIs could be a good idea too, but having 
a dump of broken and unmaintained software I do not feel does mercurial 
any good.

I might have tried to tidy up the page myself, but this page (sensibly I 
suspect) is immutable. This might however also be what has let it get 
into such a bad state.

I hope this does not come across as too insulting, I really like 
mercurial, I think it is a shame the first page many people find when 
looking for a GUI is so confusing.
