It's on my TODO, and I'm also a DD, but yes - I would definately
appreciate collaboration.

Source packages are all in the pkg-bazaar-maint alioth bzr repository,
the packages on bazaar-vcs.org are those + derived-distro XSBC (bleh,
hate these abbreviations, probably got it wrong) headers, and sometimes
we get ahead of distros during betas. The source repositories on
bazaar-vcs.org have those patches naturally.

If you were to backport the bazaar-vcs.org versions of ...
bzr
bzrtools

that's the core

but also
bzr-gtk
bzr-svn

and other packages will be coming soon.

Thanks for offering to help!
