It has the friendlier CLI (and that from a CVS fan), true.
And its seamless away-from-that-ugly-SVN-beast thing rocks.
In fact, I like to use bzr as svn client now (company’s
svn+git only).

Is this really usable? I mean, I’ve broken bzr-svn *and*
bzr-git by doing something I really need to do: basically
moving a subset of files and subdirectories off a tree I
track an upstream of. (I’d delete them, but we don’t have
the deletion-wins merge strategy yet.)

As for hosting platforms: just use FusionForge, it supports
all and then some (cpold for example, though that one’s
really just an example ☺).
