*nod* Thank you; yes, that's very helpful to know.

I'd love to know what causes your impression of "a state of flux". I
have some ideas, but don't want to taint your impressions by stating
them yet -- would rather hear from you.
NOTE: I think the Bazaar developers would like to know, too, so I've set
Reply-to on this mail to go to the Bazaar list. The thread would get
off-topic for emacs-devel at this point anyway -- anyone who does a
follow-up-to-all, please take emacs-devel@ off the recipient list.
