If I'm not horribly confused, using a branch will require either:
- Access to HEAD
- Somebody to edit CVSROOT/Access to give access to the new branch.
I'm fairly sure this is impractical (i.e., the result will be that
people don't bother, as it's not worth the hassle).

So I'd suggest that you either:
- correct my horrible confusion on CVS access control rules
- give 2.x developers access to HEAD (assuming you undid my change
yesterday ;-))
- propose an alternative to the branching strategy
