Ok so I can set up something in /sandbox/PO for testing the Jenkins build 
modification automation (switching from 5.1.0beta to 5.1.0 for ALL tasks in one 
go)

There is quite a lot to add so I would prefer to delete it afterwords, using 
SVN rm, is that possible?

If you look at the folders it seems .../main/branches/4.2 was used as the 
working area before 4.2.0 was put in /releases. It could then also serve as 
working area for 4.2.1 and so on. I want to avoid we had earlier where we 
discovered errors in CMakeList.txt when 5.0.0 was already in /releases.

Se my remark above, I am talking about the situation where we have a release 
candidate that we need to do documentation work on BEFORE it goes into the 
/releases branch.
