O.k. I started a new repository:

You can get it via:
bzr get http://xsteve.nit.at/dvc

If you have downloaded a copy from there, please do it again, because
I deleted a useless test changeset from the repository I provided
before.

As Matthieu said, if you like to share a patch, please branch from the
repository above.

Stefan.
