The lack of "bzr+ssh" access is unfortunate, but hopefully that will get fixed at some point. I do not think it should stop us from switching now (just like the slow initial checkout problem). Regarding the emacs-diffs@gnu.org messages, I'm writing a script to do that "outside of savannah". So it seems all the critical pieces are in place. We're still waiting for comments from the mailing-list, of course. In the mean time I'd like to double check with you that, assuming all is well, you can make a "final" conversion at any time.
