Actually, I think it's about 220MB including the revision history.
There are ways to (a) avoid downloading the full revision history, and
(b) create a shared repository so that you store a single set of
revision history for every branch you download. We'll include these in
the instructions, when we're ready to get going with bzr.

I do the "bzr up" and I get "Tree is up to date at revision 3619." and no new databases.xml or any other update. Is there a disconnect between updates to the SVN repository and the BZR repository? Are these repositories out of sync? If so this will be a problem.

Nope, we just haven't migrated to bzr yet... the SVN repository is
still working and when everything is ready with bzr to switch it off,
we'll have to merge any changes that have occured since the import.
