Bzr also has the notion of a tag. If you get the trunk of ipython:

bzr tags

Will list the tags. You can then branch using the tag information:

bzr branch -r tag:"rel-0.9.1" trunk 0.9.1

Of course, if you know the tag, you can branch directly from launchpad.
Unfortunately, launchpad does not show the tags, AFAIK.

cheers,
