I know you were using a simplified example and you probably had
something more concrete in mind, but do consider everyone's varying
timezones (you probably did, or have a solution that makes the point
moot). Perhaps a SVN script that freezes stable during certain hours
so that merges can't occur. Then developers don't have to check some
schedule online and do the time conversion themselves.
