Bazaar and Visual Studio

[Guy Gascoigne-Piggford]

I'm afraid that I wasn't on the project so I don't know the details
(personally think that they are crazy).  Personally I think that they
were a group of folks who were under a huge time crunch and just
didn't jave the time to learn a new way to manage things, that and a
dislike of command line tools.

I'll see if I can find out more details though.
