Hi!

Finally I was able to svn-push a bazaar branch with 50 revisions to our 
subversion repository with bzr 1.3 and bzr-svn 0.4.9! That last version was 
needed due to the fix of bug 203975 [1].

I was able to bzr branch out from the subversion repository again and to make 
the old Bazaar branch bzr-svn compatible by using

bzr upgrade --rich-root-pack

and then upgrade to a revision that was new in the subversion repository via

bzr up

Worked like a charm ;-).

So thanks a bunch, Jelmer and everyone else involved!

I think I will be using this regularily now after some time of testing it with 
one project.
