As part of my impressions I plan to also look at usage on top of svn as a viable alternative if no clear winner comes about. That way if they work well directly on top of svn we can write up very clear documentation on how to use any of them directly on top of svn and still gain the benefits of offline checkins and cheap branching. Maintenance then becomes simply keeping a read-only mirror going on code.python.org.
There's a possible third way. I've heard (though haven't investigated) that some people are working on supporting the svn wire protocol in the bzr server. This would mean that anybody who's still comfortable with svn and feels no need to change their current habits can continue to work the way they always have. Those that want the extra benefits of a DVCS, or who do not have commit access to the code.python.org branches would have viable alternatives.
