frontend (LP: #561876).

state of the installer redesign.

Gary Lasker
James Westby
Distributed Development
- Some bugfixes and merges.
- Most notably I fixed a bug where the importer failed to detect when
- someone pushed without tagging and uploaded from that. It would never compare the trees to notice they were the same before, but now it will do the comparison and decide whether to conflict based on the result.
Other
- Archive admin duty
- Sponsoring
- NBS chasing.
