TutorialClone on wiki

The tutorial on the wiki is great, and is an important thing for
attracting new users. Unfortunately, you currently can't follow
the tutorial exactly since the example repository doesn't exist:
$ hg clone http://www.serpentine.com/hg/hello my-hello
The wiki says this is because mercurial doesn't allow you to serve
more than one repository at once.
I'm curious why serpentine can't host more than one repo. If they are
hosted under apache, then can't there just be a separate index.py in
each directory? And if they are hosted using "hg serve", they could
be on different ports, and the wiki could give a URL including that
port number.
In any case, I'd be happy to host an example repository to make the
tutorial complete, if this is desired. Just let me know where to get
the example, and I'll set it up.
