Just a quick note of informal feedback:  The plethora of different store
formats in Bazaar appears to be a big turnoff for people coming to DVCS.
They see Mercurial and Git just getting on with it, whereas Bazaar
offers an array of different formats, none of which mean anything useful
to them (and not just new users either, I get confused by the selection
of formats available).
