> A private branch is fine (More correctly a fork, even, as people have pointed out) and Hg is going to support user-branches.
> In the meantime, however, unless someone strongly objects, I'm probably going to set up a temporary branch off /release27-maint under /stackless/sandboxes/ until the Hg switchover.  Name undecided yet.

No objection from me; branches in svn are for experimental stuff and
this is what you are proposing.
