Comment 3 for bug 609186

I have a branch at the project bzr-debuntu which adds ubuntu: and debian: urls (along with u: and d: shortcuts, as well as nice shortcuts for the distroseries). After chatting with James W, we agreed to merge it into bzr-bd, which I'm about to do. The changes are pretty simple; they actually call the lp_directory module to return the equivalent lp: branches). However, do you think having the debian: and d: schemes that make to Launchpad urls are too confusing when there's a deb: scheme with different semantics?

OTOH, I can't think of anything other than debian: for this.

Branch coming soon.
