I'll be offline for the rest of the week. If I don't
respond to your emails, it's not because I don't care. :-)

For those that like to be early adopters and for those who
like to think/chat about the future *after* our shiny new
format is released to the masses, here are some things to
chew on:

* https://launchpad.net/bzr-historycache

* http://bazaar-vcs.org/DraftSpecs/FormatsEndGame.

Both are a work in progress. In particular, there's still
*plenty* of room for improving bzr-historycache. If anyone
wants to help, here are some ways you can do that:

* install it
* read the help
* try it and report bugs
* fix the 2-3 broken current tests and add more tests(#)
* compress the data in historycache/graph-cache ala the
  data in historycache/revno-cache.

bzr-historycache is designed to be a production strength
implementation of the bzr-revnocache experimental plugin.
If you have bzr-revnocache installed, please move it out
of the way and try bzr-historycache instead.

# The current tests are broken because they were copied
from bzr-revnocache and haven't been tweaked yet. I think
the code itself is working ok.
