Mozilla uses Zamboni in production
https://wiki.mozilla.org/AMO:Developers

And Remora page says "Remora is no longer maintained"
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Update:Remora

I have long running plans about close (but not in launchpad way)
integration of SL services, Bazaar + ASLO + ...
The first step (during 0.92 release cycle), I'm planing to do, will be
switching ASLO to Zamboni (with keeping existed functionality).
