One of the reasons I advocate a branch rather than a separate instance
is the ease with which the mentor can then copy code over into trunk.  I
realize this may not be palatable due to a variety of reasons, but I
think from a strict student-mentor relationship, it would help things a
good deal.  What I would really like to see, actually, is the use of a
distributed SCM, but that doesn't even seem to be within the realm of
possibility.
