On behalf of the Mailman development team, I am happy to announce the first beta release of the full Mailman 3 suite.
This release includes: ... Core project - https://launchpad.net/mailman ...
I apologize for my confusion, but I'm not used to the bazaar model for multiple developers. I'm used to the svn model for C/C++ code where we keep the trunk as the latest development version (but we keep the trunk so it always builds without error).
If I want the latest development version of Mailman should I use the announced lp address above or the one I'm using now:
Related branches: parent branch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/3.0/ revision-id: barry@list.org-20140101145942-b9vqi0xmcewpk4mb date: 2014-01-01 09:59:42 -0500 build-date: 2014-05-03 10:07:35 -0400 revno: 7232
Now I'm confused, but it looks like you are looking at a local (to you) branch that you branched at rev 7232 from lp:mailman or http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/3.0/ or some other alias for that branch.
If you now cd to that branch on your local machine and do 'bzr pull' it should bring you up to the head of the branch on launchpad at rev 7251.
OTOH, if that is not your local branch, but a branch you obtained elsewhere, then you probably should not be using it as the 'official' branch is lp:mailman.

That's correct--the aliases are very confusing to me, but I apparently have the right remote repo branched.
After I did a 'bzr pull' I got the proper revision.
I had done a 'bzr update' but got no response--hence my confusion since I branched from the right place.
Now I see I am 'unbound', so I have executed 'bzr bind <...>' and can now do 'bzr update' successfully and am at rev 7251.
I assume a 'checkout' instead of a 'branch' would have put me in the same state as I am now.
Thanks, Mark.
