Since I hope we see a lot more of these problems in the future, what can be done to ease the pain? I don't know enough about SVN admin to know what might be realistic. Adding a pile of "temporary committers" comes to mind, but wouldn't really work since people will want to keep working on their branches after the sprint ends. Purely local SVN setups wouldn't work either, since sprint projects will generally have more than one worker bee, and they need to share code changes. There: I think that's enough to prove I don't have a clue :-)

Is it possible to create a branch in the main Python svn, and grant commit privs to that branch only, for sprint participants? I seem to recall something like mod_authzsvn being involved, but I don't know much more...
