I have turned it on long enough for users to do a svn switch.  I
propose that we switch it off Monday at 5 pm CST.  I think it would
be pretty important that they don't *commit* anything to the old URL,
and only commit to the new URL after they issue the switch.  The svn
switch --relocate command below should work fine with the appropriate
substitutions for their URLs.
