The situation is sad, but it's been very good of Karl to be one of the
few people willing to put his money (time) where his mouth is with
respect to Emacs and Bazaar (both WRT this and to documentation).
Thanks!

I think Stefan made basically the same request of Savannah about 3
months ago:

http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?func=detailitem&item_id=107077#comment13

Others have been asking for it for even longer.

The only conclusion I can draw is that either administering Bazaar is
for some reason much more complicated than the rest of Savannah (since
they are asking for specific help with Bazaar, rather than in
general); or that support for what (AIUI) is supposed to be the GNU
project's version control system of choice isn't a high priority for
Savannah (which advertizes itself as the "central point for
development, maintenance and distribution of official GNU software").
