It's the point... I recently switched from bzr (i was one of the first 
users) to mercurial because i just tried it and it was just what i was 
waiting from bzr in the begin, simple and fast. I even remember on the 
kernel list that the first prototype of bzr was the fastest !

The turn was after the meeting with mercurial team. Theses two projects 
should merge, we was waiting a lot for this ! iirc there was somes 
copyright problems... The community should choose, it's what's append 
now...
