Could it be that bzr grabs the lock when you do "bzr commit" and keep it held for as long as you're editing the commit message? If that's indeed the culprit, I think it's a misfeature of Bzr, but at least we can workaround it by using "bzr commit -m <...>", which I would then *strongly* recommend. Stefan
