It's alrweady there, but with a bit mis-leading name.
bk://linux.bkbits.net/linux-2.5
To see the repository in your browser use:
http://linux.bkbits.net and select the linux-2.5 repository.
The reason to keep the linux-2.5 name is simply that renaming the repository
would cause parent information to be void for all people pulling
from this directory.
To my knowledge there is no possibility to symlink two repositories, so
both names could live in parrallel for a while??

Sure there is and it's done.

Thanks!
Can you make it visible at http://linux.bkbits.net - or I just have to be
patient until a new page is generated?

Wouldn't it make sense to avoid the need to do this in the future?
Specifically, make a tree named "linux" available - that's always the
Linus tree.
Create linux-2.6/2.8/3.0/3.2 etc as they are handed off to maintainers
*other* than Linus?
Or some combination that makes sense. It just seems weird to me to need
to continually change the name of the main development tree.

Continually, as in every 2-3 years? I don't see much of a problem
here unless the cycle length changes.
