Comment (by gracinet):
I'm not a license freak, but if I understand the
[http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#AllCompatibility compatibility
matrix] correctly, that means that the current !BzrPoller already has a
license problem.
My involvment with the existing poller is rather low, I mostly took a look
at the hook, not the poller.
An implementation from scratch would indeed be somewhat easier for me,
since I modelled !HgPoller on !GitPoller already. Basing a new poller on
the ```bzr``` executable rather than ```bzrlib``` would be a simple way to
ensure that it's original work, and be somewhat simpler in terms of
dependencies but
* I can't be sure at this point that ```bzrlib``` is not the only way to
get acceptable performance (a major issue in Bazaar context). To know
that, I'll have to check in the existing code.
* If a problem has but one solution, any code implementing it will look as
an inclusion.
