Personally I'd prefer it if we could use the Launchpad list, so that all the code-hosting facilities are in one place.  I presume that eventually Launchpad's UI will get better (perhaps even as a direct result of the bug linked above) and it will be more obvious how to get on the mailing list; for now, we could just have some clearer text and a link in the project's description.  But a python.org mailing list will forever be an extraneous link hanging off the side, rather than just a part of the facilities that the project offers where it's hosted.

But this is a very mild preference and I will not defend it further than this one message, so please feel free to ignore :).
