   I think we're on the on-ramp to another internet bubble: got a coupon in the mail for a company that will deliver water / soft drinks to your home.

   If memory serves the overflow of bullshit-businesses-developed-to-deliver-shit-to-homes was what started the internet bubble.

   That and the overvaluation of companies who have yet to turn any profit.

     @clacke @lnxw48a1 I thought bazaar was officially dead, hence #emacs moving to git.

     Specifically for *years* bugs and missing features had languished which were affecting #bzr development, and basically the only time anything got done was when rms personally emailed the maintainer with specific problems.
