Do you plan to write your own repository system? I think it would be nicer if you could support already existing repositories like Subversion.

We plan to make our own server, that will handle the code repository. If we were to use subversion as server we would fail our project goal: to provide more functionality than the current solutions. Although we do not know the full capacities of svn, I think it would not allow us to handle code synchronisation on a locking-base, where possibly not only whole classes are lockable, but also features. Nevertheless we will make sure that we design our components in a way to guarantee maximal reusability, such that the emu-client could be replaced by a svn-client for example.
