SVN timing - how can we help?

That will be after the switch, when we can do real moves on the 
repository.

I didn't mention earlier, but, after we set the date for the switch, I 
think we'll need to set some further deadlines.

I can think of:
a) reclaiming of work branches, leading to:
b) clean up of /branches and /tags
c) reclaiming of projects in kdenonbeta (into kdeplayground), leading to:
d) cleanup of kdenonbeta
e) cleanup of /trunk (removal of old modules, empty dirs, etc.)

I think you've just volunteered for such a doc :-)

Mainly, what would be required of the maintainers would be to effect the 
'svn mv' into kdeplayground before the removal deadline. On the deadline 
(d above), we'd svn rm trunk/kdenonbeta (*)

(*) you can still retrieve old files & projects, even if you miss the 
deadline.

If it involves renaming or moving things around, wait for Subversion.
