DVD copy of Repository ?
Is it possible to copy a svn repository to DVD for later read only access ?
If so what would be a good method.
The goal here is to put a repository on DVD as a backup. Perhaps even
take a dump from the DVD too be able to re-load a deleted repository.
Possibly even access the data in the repository on the DVD via
TortoiseSVN.

Phil,
Google for "svn dump". It creates an incremental dump file of all your
revisions. If you load it back via svnadmin (which is also used to make
the dump) you'll get everything except the repository config files
restored. As far as I know.

Yes this is trivial, you can use file:// URLs with standard client
tools to access a Subversion database on the media.
