I would recommend setting up a hosted webdav svn server somewhere.
That way you will have access to your stuff from any computer and  
easily give other people access and track what they do.

I host all my stuff with dreamhost. They have a subversion server  
creation thing. I have like 7 or so svn repos running on there now.  
It literally takes about 30 seconds to fill out their little form and  
then it takes their robot about 10 minutes to create everything and  
email you.

I'm sure other hosts probly have something similar.

There's a svn command that lets you backup the entire repo will all  
changes and everything. I would recommend backing everything up  
occasionally, because you never know.

Awesome bundle, BTW.

PS: No, I don't work for dreamhost. But I have been hosting with then  
for more than 9 years.
