Be assured that this won't happen. Perhaps the /python folder
would get removed from projects repository; svn.python.org would
continue to work (it is also needed to host the website and the
PyPI sources). It doesn't cost anything to continue to run svn.
(perhaps if all the other projects except for stackless left svn,
I would ask you to "volunteer" some admin time into its operation).

Martin
