I have just registered octave in launchpad.net (Ubuntus/Canonicals
version of sourceforge.net), I guess that within a day they will
convert the cvs to bzr, then it will be easy to test if bzr is as slow
as its reputation. The source will end up being accessible from this
url:
  https://launchpad.net/octave/trunk

I am a novice at launchpad, I have started using it two days ago in
order see if it is a good place to host a small open source project.
It looks like they have a bug tracking system also and it looks really
polished, but I still don't know if it is good.
