Hello,

Please, read this email if you are using Bazaar branches of MySQL Server code located on Launchpad (at https://code.launchpad.net/mysql-server ).

I just converted our Oracle-internal Bazaar shared repository to "Bazaar format 2a" (it used to be in format 1.9). This is a new format where bzr stores things differently, resulting in a twice smaller repository (~400 MB instead of ~800MB).

As this Oracle-internal repository is mirrored to Launchpad, Launchpad is going to convert its mirror branches to format 2a too (automatically, I have been told). This conversion takes several hours, so expect those Launchpad branches to be unavailable today and/or tomorrow. Don't panic if "bzr pull" from Launchpad gives errors, for example.

After the conversion is done, there will be simple conversion steps to take on your side too. I'll explain them in a next email, when Launchpad has converted enough branches (which is hard to predict as it depends on Launchpad's automatic jobs, and its load, but I guess it will be tomorrow or on Tuesday). I don't want to explain steps right now, because following conversion instructions if Launchpad's branches happen to not be converted yet (bad luck), would only be a pure waste of your time.

Thanks.
