Good idea - but here's another suggestion - it would be great if someone could do an audit of release and trunk branches and see what hasn't been merged but should have been. I get the impression that some folks have committed fixes to Trunk and then forgotten all about them :-(

Hopefully this is helpful. I've tried to generate reports like this with svn and have been consistently unsuccessful, as the network tends to time out before the diff has completed.
I've pecked away at generating similar reports via svn. Haven't had any timeouts or other problems. The design I had in mind was to generate a web page listing the names of all libraries with unmerged changes, with each name linked to a diff for that particular library. The web page would be generated and posted daily, similar to the inspection report. Your reports are very helpful; they are a clear demonstration of how serious the unmerged changes problem is.
