Hi Ken, 

Should we be moving to committing to the 0.8 branch by default, with
only bug fixes to 0.7? Last time I tried, 0.7 was the default/mainline
for bzr branch lp:duplicity etc.  

https://code.launchpad.net/duplicity

lists 0.8 as Experimental, with 0.7 (and 0.6) as Development. We should
probably also update README-REPO if 0.6 is now EOL, as that refers to
0.6 as the stable branch. 

As always, thanks for your work shepherding the project. 

Kind regards, 

Aaron
