I think Rosetta probably would too, although I don't have a good sense of which community is more robust, where mind-share is heading, or what the major advantages and disadvantages of both systems are. That's a good part of the reason why I don't want to think about switching to either yet, although we should start another thread at some point to talk about it. The right time for that is probably when we want to get 2.2 and/or 3.0 translated. > This is my first encounter with bzr.
