I've been asked for more details about the motivation for
the move. First is just the scale of the project; httplib2 isn't
a big project and SF just has way too many knobs, it presents
a very large dashboard for such a small project.
Also as httplib2 becomes more stable the majority
of the work will shift into documentation and that will be
made easier by the wiki. Third is the integration points:
I have wanted to create a mailing list for checkins but
have put it off under SF knowing what a pain it can be.
Creating just such a mailing list/google group under
code.google.com is trivial in comparison. And finally, the
speed of the web interface for code.google.com is
substantially faster than SF.

All in all it is going to make managing the project much
faster and easier with no loss in functionality.
