Well this will certainly screw up everyone using a branch of this branch
since there appears to have been no announcement anywhere of the change.

It does appear to have done.  But remember everyone has the bzr+ssh:
protocol URL stored so another change will cause people further
aggravation.

I think failing to announce this sort of change and assuming that
everyone will divine that it has happened and will know exactly what to
do, is not a way of progressing.

I should note that this is not the first time...

Apologies for being grumpy on this but it is these small things that get
to be the most irritating.
