Not quite true. If I set up a group (which I just did) they will inherit
default access rights on newly created repos:

https://bitbucket.org/petsc/test-for-groups

This is true. Either shared password or OpenID.

Not true. You just didn't have to deal with the behind-the-scenes work that
Satish did.

Ok.

Exactly the same on petsc.cs.iit.edu. Who created the petsc-dev repo? The
only thing you can see is the mercurial history.
