Agreed. Can I also point out that Bazaar isn't an official repository
for Python (yet). I don't want to open up the DVCS discussion again,
but I have recently finished looking at both Bazaar and Mercurial for
my personal use (including managing Python contributions) and decided
on Mercurial. A significant part of the decision was the fact that in
certain configurations, Bazaar is really, really slow.

It feels a little like Bazaar is becoming the "de facto" DVCS solution
for Python, and I'd like to avoid that happening until a proper
evaluation has been done.

Paul.

PS If the fact that Bazaar repos are set up is an important factor
here, I'd be willing to set up the equivalent Mercurial repos -
although I would need access to the relevant boxes and possibly some
admin assistance.
