Nice post. Though I wonder about this:
  Always merge your Bazaar branch into the Subversion mainline when
  you’ve merged changes from Subversion into your branch.

Why do you need to merge 'myhacks' into trunk just because you merged
'trunk' into 'myhacks'. ?

maybe I'm misunderstanding the statement?
