Sorry, but I think bzr is not a good fit. It's numerous changes to the
repository format make it impossible to use. It's either slow if you use an old
version, or it's incompatible with old clients, let's say on an old debian box.
So I think php.net is better of using mercurial or git, but if we put together
an RFC for a migration, I'll make sure bzr is covered as well in an evaluation.
Personally I would need a very good reason to add yet another DVCS to the mix
here! I've not found bzr as easy to link to from hg as git is. In fact I've not
actually got it to play at all as yet ... while hg does work into git with only
the problems of managing multiple repo's which is still work in progress on both
of them.
That said, bzr does seem to handle the multiple repo's in a more user friendly
manor? It is just a pity that there is NOT a single target solution for DVCS as
everybody is currently scurrying off to their own corners :( The barriers have
already been drawn rather then there being concensus on some sort of standard.
