I'd of course like to know what exactly fails and where the
instructions are unclear. There might be a simple explanation to a
problem and you will struggle with it for the rest of your life unless
someone else points out the reason.

Make no mistake, I'm not a dvcs or bzr expert. Bzr was too much for me
when I first tried it (more than a half a year ago). Now I have
relearned it and it's beginning to make sense. I don't mean it's this
hard for everyone; I had the extra problems with the sf.net repository.
But I understand very well that the first steps outside svn are
difficult and my documentation is far from perfect.
