One anecdotal data point:  I have now converted all my branches to 2a
and I have seen only smaller branches and faster performance.  Apart
from the occasional glitch with pushing to Launchpad (solved by
upgrading the Launchpad branch to 2a) I have not seen any problems, 2a
seems fine to me.

I guess another interesting date is the cut-off date for Karmic --
should it have the last in the 1.x series or the first in the 2.x
series.
