You're welcome to use my branch; you'd need to re-add the changed files
with 'svn add', then commit, test, then re-merge with the trunk using
'svn merge'.  But I'd suggest just committing it directly to the trunk. 
I'd test it straight away and report any problems ;)

If you want to create your own branch, use
    svn copy . http://svn.scipy.org/svn/branches/rc
then switch to it with
    svn switch http://svn.scipy.org/svn/branches/rc
This can be useful for testing big patches.  You'd need to keep it in
sync with the trunk manually using 'svn merge' regularly to pull in new
changes.
