| Niiiice!

|  1. No user handle exists yet for making shared repositories

Yes.  AFAIK, baz-import is the only way to make a shared repository.

|  2. shared repositories require knits

Not true.  baz-import produces shared repositories with weaves (though
this may changed when knits become the default format).

|  3. The knit upgrade requires the manual creating of lock dirs

Not true, AFAIK.  The current repository format has lock dirs, and I
can't imagine you'd need to recreate them when you later upgrade to knits.

|  4. Testing bzrtools is most easily performed by running "bzr selftest"

Yes.  Well, I usually do 'bzrtools selftest bzrtools'.
