Olive does not working with bzr.exe AFAIK.

Yes, it's precisely correct.

As Sylvain noted this disclaimer already present on WindowsDownloads page, and on Plugins page
I marked QBzr plugin as compatible with bzr.exe with label "bzr.exe".

If you think it's not enough, please add required warning message to Olive page,
in the end bazaar-vcs.org is the wiki.

See recent thread TortoiseBzr started by Sylvain. As Sandy Dunlop reported he's working
on another GUI for bzr based on wxPython library, named wildcat-bzr.
Unfortunately, all this options required to install Python interpreter and other libraries,
as described on WindowsInstall page. Only with exemption: for wildcat-bzr you don't need
to install PyGTK libraries and install wxPython instead (I suppose it's easier task because
instead of dozen GTK packages you'll need only one wxPython installer).

About Tortoise: it's in good alpha stage but no one working on this codebase since September 2007.
Folks from Mercurial used our codebase to starting TortoiseHg and it's already reach version 0.3.
So we actually see lacks of manpower here.
