We have people reporting that they've switched and found it an
improvement, and we've had a pulse of bugs around this format which
now seem to be resolved.  A few people have also commented recently on
the good quality of our support.

The Karmic beta freeze is the 24th of September.

We could file a bug against bzr for each plugin that's out of date,
but that doesn't seem quite right, and Launchpad has no concept of a
milestone across products.  So perhaps the best way to track it is
just by the state of our PPA.
