Can you donate a public subversion repository for Pycon sprints?
I'm wondering if anybody out there can donate a Subversion repository for use at the upcoming Pycon sprint next week (actually, starting Saturday). I had a machine that I was going to use for this, but it lost its disk over the weekend, and it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to get it back online in time. :(
Ideally, someone who will be coming to the sprint would be able to donate a repository, since we'll need to set up access control once we're there and we know who's going to be participating. It will be tough to coordinate this if you're not at the sprint, but if you're willing to be accessible via IM or IRC, we might be able to work around that.
I'd like for us to have a separate repository, not tainted by other projects or code. Access can be by http or ssh+svn, whichever you prefer (although the latter requires us to coordinate pubkeys, so that's less desirable). I would send you a dump file of my private repository, and then you'd send me a dump file when the sprints are all done.
This will not be the permanent subversion repository for Mailman3. For the long term, we'll either host at SourceForge when they make Subversion available, or I'll host it at my site after I get my machine back online. We just need something we can use for the week of Pycon.
If you think you can help out, please respond to me directly. Thanks!

We have a winner! John Viega reminds me that we can use list.org! Whodah thunk? :) The machine recently got rebuilt with plenty of disk space and already has svn on it, so we just need to set up the access infrastructure. I should be able to have the repo up before Saturday, and I will send (read-only) instructions when it's available. We'll work out write perms at the sprint.
Thanks everyone who offered to help. I hope to see you all at Pycon, if not the sprints.

Completely unrelated question: are there any plans on moving the current repository to Subversion? :))

Personally, I'd be all for it, but since most people (Tokio being the most important) are already used to using CVS to access MM2, I won't make that decision unilaterally. I'd like the answer to be "eventually, yes", but what "eventually" means is up for debate.
At some point SF will be making Subversion available, so another question is whether we put any future MM2 svn repo on SF or move it to list.org too.
