sharing mq patches with subversion repository

I'm using Mercurial with mqueues on top of an open source subversion
repository, which is working great. I'm stumbling though when it comes to
sharing the patch repository for other people on my team.

The way I'm using it locally is to 'hg init' the root svn repository, then
'hg init --mq' for the patch repo. I've setup .hgignore to ignore all
subversion related files, like .svn directories. This means that when I
share the repository, anyone cloning it doesn't get the svn repo and can't
do the qpop-svn up-qpush flow that I can do locally.

What I think I'm shooting for is:

1. clone open source svn repo to his machine
2. clone/pull hg mqueue repository to svn repo
3. qpush all patches

And I don't know how to arrive at this. Is this the right workflow? How do
I expose the patch repository, and properly clone/pull/push with it?

Thanks,
Ryan
