I havn't looked at bzr at all, but I've been using tla/baz for a couple 
of years. IME, anything beyond a simple star topology just didn't work 
well. I can't say if this was due to the internal model, the merge 
implementation, or simply a bug. Or maybe it's just because I didn't 
understand how it worked.
