Something like that :-) The idea is to have information about which revisions
of which files should be accessible, and when they should be accessible.
Using that information a system that sits on top of subversion can serve
the correct revision based on the current time.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think this is the way I will be going, as I have
dropped the other idea. The really nice thing about using revision numbers would
have been that I would know that the file in the requested revision would never ever
change. This is important for caching reasons. This brings me to my next question:
is there a way to mark a directory (tag) read-only?
