AFAIUI, that would require opening a fixed port from the outside with masking
the IP for privacy reasons, etc.  Setting up a lighttpd -> Apache ->
mod_dav_svn chain isn't that easy either (one more advantage of Git: You can
just dump a repository onto a webserver and everybody can clone it -- that's
all).

However I'm still very certain that noone actually needs that :-).  If the code
is in active use, its authors will have moved it.  If not, it's probably
unusable by now.  So I think having a read-only copy (+ backup) in a shared
directory will satisfy the demand.
