1) Not really necessary :o) Convenient and necessary for the permanent people, 
but a temporary measure of 'handing a password down' is probably an 
acceptable price for involved parties.

2) This one is interesting though. The SVN I am administering uses the primary 
email address of each user as the username, and by default it works then...
Since the current svn-auth file is free from @ signs, that could work. Make 
sure they all have GMail accounts??
