Congratulations to you specifically! It is really good to see work
progressing on a Tortoise-Bzr.

Just as a heads up the branch URL gives a 404, but it is indeed a bzr
branch. It seems you might have Indexes turned off?

Specifically, browsing to:
http://www.hl.id.au/Projects/tortoisebzr/bzr-tortoise/

gives a 404, but browsing to:
http://www.hl.id.au/Projects/tortoisebzr/bzr-tortoise/.bzr/branch-format

Returns the expected branch format string.

Also, earlier Henry was kind enough to register his branch with
Launchpad, so there is an official mirror at:
https://code.launchpad.net/~misc-hl/bzr-gtk/bzr-tortoise

Just in case his official location goes offline for whatever reason.
