Another option is to reduce the work on our side and just have an SVN branch:

1) user uses SVN checkout to get the branch with the test case for the
given project
2) user makes changes as needed
3) submit the test case as a zip, or better yet as "svn diff" output zipped

Is that better, or do you like the archetypes approach better?
