Please do. I don't know exactly what Andreas plans to do, but he has tol= d me what he needs to do it (that is, a map of existing hashes to new ones)= . and I will try to generate that. Another alternative, possibly simpler, is that you could push the branch = to the public Bazaar repository and let me know you have done so. Then it would get converted automatically the next time I do a lift. Is there any reason not to do things that way? --=20 Eric S. Raymond
