I was not talking about theory:
    - svn co url -> bzr co url
    - svn commit -m "bla bla" -> bzr ci -m "bla bla"
    - svn up -> bzr up
    - svn log -> bzr log
    - svn blame -> bzr blame
You cannot be more concrete than that :)

I agree about everything else: tools maturity, GUI for windows, etc... 
and I am not saying that we should change now or to bzr for that matter. 
But the difficulty for developers, I don't think it is a valid argument. 
It is only different if you use branching, which nobody forces people to 
use, and works better than in svn.

cheers,
