Yes.  I had no awareness I was "recovering" the page -- I never knew
that it had been deleted! :-)  My editing session on that page started
before the deletion.

But I don't regret having revived it, now that it makes clear that we
recommend a more dVCS-ish way, and that BzrForEmacsDevs is a superset of
it.  As Glenn Morris and a couple of others have requested that it stay
around, I certainly won't delete it.

The main thing is to provide clear directions for those coming in with
no prior opinion.  People who already know they prefer the quick-start
guide are best served by getting one -- for me, the only question was
how to provide that to them *without* confusing anyone else, and I think
we've found a way to do that.
