I would recommend against doing this, actually. There is much negative
feeling (among those I talk VCSen with) around the perception that
Bazaar is somehow tied to use of Launchpad, whereas Mercurial and Git
are less restrictive because they have no such ties.

Adding such a thing prominently on the website would reinforce this
“Bazaar! Launchpad! Canonical! All the same thing, innit!” that turns a
lot of people away from Bazaar-the-VCS.

I think it's plenty that “Bazaar hosting” as a search term will return
Launchpad as the first hit.
