Do you think that Larry would provide enough information to re-create the changesets? The tool allows one to easily retrieve the head of the repository or a snapshot, given that you know the changeset number. To be able to create individual changesets, you would need to know the BK revision number and they order. Looking at the bkbits.net website, it looks like you could have everything you need in there but somebody tried few years ago to write a script to apply the bkbits.net patches and the surprise was that in some cases it failed. That is because the patches from bkbits.net are not simply applied on a tree with "patch" but bitkeeper does a kind of three-way merge. The missing part is the full graph and you can't know the common ancestor. The BKCVS is still the best available (even if it was broken for the last week).
