Is there a rationale for the release structure, and specifically of the
location of the tags:

svn/boost/
   release/
     next/ (boost-root)
     RC_1_35_0_n/ (boost-root)
     1_35_0/ (boost-root)

Instead of:

svn/boost/
   release/ (boost-root)
   tags/
     RC_1_35_0_n/ (boost-root)
     1_35_0/ (boost-root)

??

If the reason is to make the permissions easier to manage. Did you
consider a more traditional svn structure of:

svn/boost/release/
   trunk/ (boost-root)
   tags/
     RC_1_35_0_n/ (boost-root)
     1_35_0/ (boost-root)

??
