It worked out of the box. Though I get the impression that it was a bad 
idea to put everything into one database (monotone+polytone+my apps).

Apart from having no real idea what a node should be unless I left click 
it (remember different branches are shown at once), I easily got a diff 
and an impression about what the last checkin was.

Only feature wishes:
more easily see which node belongs to which branch (color or a topmost 
node for branches?) and more easily get information on the files 
affected. Then it replaces cvs log nicely.

I prefer bibblebabble over hex strings (for brevity) but my first 
reactions was: In what strange arabic city list have I landed ;-)

well it coped quite well with it. But I did only import my smallest CVS 
repository to explore monotone.
