Which made me wonder after thinking about Martin remark for a
while that I may change my setup to be:
- create all my branches from lp:bzr,
- keep only my integration branch against bazaar-vcs.org since I
only really need the tighter sync when submitting to pqm, and
even then...
The former may be a good work-around against lp going mad when
generating diffs for merge proposals (or lp:mad for short) :)

Or just bind the pqm branch to bazaar-vcs.org.

What is the status there ? Who did work on the subject last
(tricky question in a distributed team :-) ?
