Agreed. At *least* May for the main repository.

Also, don't forget Guido and the Windows version of bzr. He will also
need to also have an explicit veto/approve before we can change this.

FWIW, I've already upgraded my local repos months ago. There have been

you can it's worth doing the upgrade locally anyway even before the master.
