It's not supported because it is problematic for a number of reasons so I
won't help you set such a thing up.

Hi Mark, I think what is meant is to create an alternate server process to
what is already there.

If the other group is using svnserve, then you can use:
* svnserve on a different port, or
* svnserve through ssh, or
* use apache2.

If they are using apache2, then set up
* a second apache2 on a different port, or
* a virtual host, or
* a separate url scheme ('/svnmygroup/' instead of just '/svn/'), or
* svnserve directly or through ssh.
