 Replying to [comment:3 arma]:
 > (1) Freeze corpsvn (i.e. make it read-only), and make a full checkout of
 it somewhere

 Oh, and here is what might be a critically useful further observation: I
 believe we don't need any svn history or previous versions of things. That
 is, I think that the only things we want to rescue, and then triage, are
 the current versions of the files in the repo.

 So we could do an svn checkout somewhere internally, keep those files
 there, and then once we have Sue putting her new files somewhere smarter,
 we could shut down the svn service and keep the svn checkout around for
 when we do step (3), plus be able to access it in a pinch if Sue somehow
 loses her own svn checkout.

 (We might want to keep the actual svn database around for a while too,
 since e.g. I bet doing an svn checkout on Windows makes the line endings
 correct for Windows, and other subtle things that won't be immediately
 obvious to us at first.)
