Hi,

I really like Bazaar and use it exclusively for my own personal 
projects. I'm a big advocate of it at work as well and because of that 
we are considering moving to Bazaar at some point but there are certain 
adoption blockers that prevent us from doing this right now. I try to 
keep up with the developments on the mailing list but I still don't have 
a feel for when these adoption blockers may be fixed.

~  - Nested trees (we need to split our code into projects each one with 
its own branch but all inside one master branch)
~  - Integration into windows explorer with all features in TortoiseSVN.
~  - History horizon (ability to have a branch that is somewhere in 
between a lightweight checkout and a full branch)
~  - EOL conversions and file encodings.
~  - Ability to handle large files
~  - Easy installation of Bazaar with subversion plugin on Windows/Mac OSX
~  - Subversion memory leaks fixed

Perhaps someone can update me on the progress and/or likelihood of these 
features making it into Bazaar? Once these issues are fixed there will 
be no reason not to move to Bazaar! I'm REALLY looking forward to that 
day ;-)

Cheers,

Nick
