No, this is just a "demo". I don't have access to the server, except to 
push files to it, and also, I don't want that too many people to access 
to it. This is something which at some point should be done on scipy.org 
(but now, there are some problems with the scipy.org servers which need 
to be solved/upgrade, as I understand, and a bzr mirror is not a 
priority, obviously). This way, it could be easily and regularly updated 
through a cron job, or whatever.

It is bzr-gtk, which is a graphical front end to bzr *commands*, that is 
it is not an integral GUI, just a graphical version of every command. 
For the log and annotation, I find it useful (as well as for the diff, 
in some particular cases).

The bzr-gtk plugin is not included by default in the binaries (yet, at 
least).

cheers,
