I'm not against adding this to svn, but please be sure these files don't leak into the tarballs should we need to cut another 2.5 or 2.6 release.  I think that just means tweaking sandbox/release/release.py. The fact that releases might / will still be made from those branches argues against including the file on them at all:  they are in fact the "canonical" repository locations, even if most of the work is done in hg and patched into them.

Indeed, 2.5 and 2.6 should be left alone. +1 on adding such a file to the more recent branches that are handled in hg, though.

Cheers, Nick.
