[Bug 1577847] [NEW] Demote Bazaar to universe?

[Bryan Quigley]

Public bug reported:

Release to act on:  Dev (currently 16.10)
Src: bzr 
Bin: bzr bzr-doc python-bzrlib python-bzrlib-dbg python-bzrlib.tests

Bazaar development is in maintenance mode and there are not resources to
port it to python 3.  If you are starting a new project you really want
to use git (yes, that is technically just my opinion).

>From this point on, I ignore any I've already covered that are in
universe.

This is not reach for archive action yet, I just wanted to start the
discussion here.


Out of the discussion from UOS May 2016 there was talk about demoting Bazaar from Main to Universe as part of us moving Python 2 eventually to universe.  http://summit.ubuntu.com/uos-1605/meeting/22675/finish-move-to-py3/
