To stop fluid dripping from the open lines, wrap the ends in saran wrap and hold it in place with a rubber band. Threaten to kill and dismember anyone who pushes on the brake pedal while it is like this.

For the holes in the calipers themselves, you can jam/twist small wire nuts (Marrettes) into the holes to keep the leftover fluid in and the crud out. I found some little rubber plugs to use when I did mine.
