FYI, in case you're not aware, there's a pretty strong feeling on
emacs-devel that the switch to Git will happen and RMS is not opposed.

I don't know if they'll use remote-bzr, though.  It's more likely
they'll use one of the already-existing mirrors and sync it up, based on
the feedback so far.  It's a good time to bring remote-bzr up on
emacs-devel if you want it to be considered.
