	I didn't realize this was so actively developed.  I picked it up a 
couple of days ago (this branch, around patch 25) and have been using 
it as part of my weaning off of CVS.

        I have a few comments:

	Python 2.3 seems to be required.  I'm running this on OS X, which has 
2.2 installed, but it's missing a core module (sets) that is needed.

        Sqlite and its python module seems to be required.

                http://pysqlite.sourceforge.net/ (closed to protest software 
patents)

	The last is something I've been meaning to get around to, but if 
you're maintaining a TODO, this would be a great addition:  I think the 
changeset summary should be derived from the commit message.  Something 
like the first sentence or x characters, whichever is shorter.

        I know I'm behind, but this is awesome work.  :)
