These mirrors will give us a public fail-over repository in the event that hg.python.org goes offline unexpectedly, and also provide features such as RSS feeds of changes for users interested in monitoring the repository passively. The main advantage of those mirrors to my mind is that it makes it easy for anyone to clone their own copy of the python.org repos without having to upload the whole thing to bitbucket themselves. That makes it easy for people to use a natural Mercurial workflow to develop and collaborate on patches, even for components other than the main CPython repo (e.g. the devguide or the benchmark suite).
