Good, because between this now and pytz the other 63 projects I follow use
Subversion or Mercurial.
Bazaar seems to be mostly limited to Ubuntu users and stuff Canonical does,
so the choice for a Bazaar setup next to Subversion strikes me a bit as odd.
Mercurial is also Python, distributed and with a, as far as I (can) track
things, bigger market share than Bazaar.
Hi,
This is not quite true. One of the main bzr developers is a Windows guy, so the user base is/will be large, far larger than only Ubuntu. A lot of projects switched to bzr because of this. Honestly, I think that Hg and bzr fill the same need, but bzr developement at the moment is fantastic. For a still young product it is a good think (Hg is older).
One additional good think is that there is a Sourceforge-like site that uses bzr ; launchpad.net. I don't know of something equivalent for Hg.
Just my two (euro) cents ;)
