What a large thread! I'm glad you posted, Michael.
You should look at archzoom, if you can still find a running instance
or get someone to help you set it up. In some ways I think it's
superior to many other viewers in the density of information display
and visual elegance.
Random ideas:
* I actually like our nested log display much more than a viz
display, and would like if loggerhead showed something similar - put
disclosure triangles next to merges and when they're opened show the
revisions that are merged in. I think this is often easier to read
than the tram tracks.
* The display should be more dense - loggerhead uses (i think) a
larger-than-default font, and has a lot of whitespace. (I like
whitespace but somehow in the current theme it looks gassy rather than
elegant.) For example in my browser window I see 19 revisions by
default of gtk+ at the url Johan gave, but only 5 of bzr.dev, and I
don't think the viewvc is too dense.
* Maybe you should see about getting a different (virtual) host to
show off your in-development version when you have changes.
* The 'description' field seems redundant with the revision heading.
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad-bazaar/+bug/121133 "make link
to codebrowse more prominent" - you can ask Tim or jml to do it if
you want.
