That's a nice list! Excellent roundup of the sort I've come
to expect from you.
I'd ask MBP for clarification, but my impression is that the
only concrete link between bazaar-ng and arch is that it shares the
word "bazaar" with one of arch's implementations. I do not believe
that arch provides any sort of "specification" for bazaar-ng beyond
inspiring features.
This is where marketing terms begin to make me question my own
understanding of the facts. I base this claim mostly on MBP's
writings in which he says that the UI problems in arch go all the way
down to even the repository layout. I am reasonably certain that bzr
will not be able to interact with any arch repositories without some
sort of third-party translator.
