Sorry I didn't get back to you until now, I've been on vacation for the
last few weeks. (Technically I still am, but at least I have decent
internet access now).

I will look into getting the Transport stuff working with the latest
bzr.dev code. But probably I'll wait until I get a chance to wade
through the other 270 emails I missed, so that I know what is going on
in bzr right now.
