For me, it was a complete PITA because of the Tortoise/Putty/Pageant/SSH2 dance and then trying to get Python to compile with the only compiler I had (MSVC++6). The advantage of a separate sprint repository is that we can essentially leave it unsecured and make it easy for everyone to freely checkin / checkout and experiment. For the Iceland sprint and bug days, we need a procedure that is minimizes the time lost for getting everyone set. For bug days, it is especially critical because a half-day lost may eat-up most of the time available for contributing. For the Iceland sprint, it is important because this is just one of many set-up tasks (others include downloading and compiling psyco, pypy, etc). Raymond
