Now, to answer your real question. :) Linaro uses bzr in large part because Linaro uses Launchpad, and Launchpad integrates with bzr (and it does not integrate with git). Some of us on the Linaro team also have a personal preference for bzr, so this works out nicely for us - but it's not something that we're religious about. For collaborating with certain upstream projects, such as the kernel and u-boot, it's clear that using git is the appropriate choice; that's why we have git.linaro.org. For new work in Linaro, such as our platform and infrastructure tools, bzr is the better choice because of the integration with Launchpad.
I can't resist... but to say that I'm looking forward to the work being done on the git-bzr interface for Git to interact with bzr repos directly.
