Hi,
I am trying to familiarize myself with bazaar, so I had a look at the
org-mode bzr mirror of the git repo.
https://code.launchpad.net/org-mode
It fails to import since a couple of weeks, probably since

Turns out that there is some trouble handling git submodules in the
import; (see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/402814 )
they are working on this issue.
Am I right that since march there is only the jump.el submodule?
I am not familiar with git, but I was wondering if there is another way
in this miraculous toolbox that is git - other than submodule - to get
the current behaviour.
It is not worth significant effort, especially because there is hope
this issue will be solved on launchpads/bzr side hopefully soon, but if
there is an easy and quick way, it would be nice to get the bzr mirror
(and with it the daily .deb snapshots for ubuntu) back running.

That is correct, the only submodule is jump.el which isn't required for
normal use, but is included for navigation of the testing framework.
See the contents of the .gitmodules file in the Org-mode directory
,----[.gitmodules]
| [submodule "testing/jump"]
| path = testing/jump
| url = git://github.com/eschulte/jump.el.git

Not that I can think of.

Is it possible to simply ignore the jump submodule (maybe skip that
commit) and then move forward with bzr synchronization. There's no need
to include jump in the bzr repository as it's entirely optional and is
only needed for writing/using the test suite (which doesn't happen that
frequently anyways).
If there is no way to skip that commit on the bzr-synchronization side,
it shouldn't be difficult to create an alternate git repository which
mirrors the main repo but skips the submodule commit. Once this is
setup the bzr repository could track this alternate git repository.
Hope this helps -- Eric
