FWIW, I don't consider the current bazaar installation sufficient here. It does give a useful insight for those of us unfamiliar with that kind of system, and certainly allows those who want to develop with bzr already to do so - in the dvcs manner. However, for a complete "demo" installation, I'd like to see a repository that contains all revisions, not just selected ones, has post-commit email notifications (or explains why it can't provide these), etc.

Without a doubt the bazaar branches need a little more loving attention to make them a full working demo, but it's mostly details. The branches do contain the whole history, and not just 'select revisions':
