One other quick note.  With bzr 2.3, lp:ubuntu branches can also be referenced
by ubuntu:<series>/<package> urls.  <series> can be 'maverick' or 'm' and can
be omitted for the latest series.  E.g. to get Natty's version of
python-numpy, just say:

% bzr branch ubuntu:python-numpy

Maverick's version via:

% bzr branch ubuntu:m/python-numpy

Cheers,
