I know you were using a simplified example and you probably had something more concrete in mind, but do consider everyone's varying timezones (you probably did, or have a solution that makes the point moot). Perhaps a SVN script that freezes stable during certain hours so that merges can't occur. Then developers don't have to check some schedule online and do the time conversion themselves.
Good points. I've added a note on time slots.
