Ok lets say cvs is the tool.
Is it also useful for working on a file together??
Should he install cygwin to use cvs.
I first thought about only giving him pdf output and having him write
changes in emails, pretty akward though...

I am most concerned about ease of use and a way to both work seperately
and at the same time on a file.

We have tried vnc but I don't get how to share files that way.
I guess with cvs the files would reside on a server and we would backup
daily. I have a web server I could use I guess.

I was wondering if there was something built for sound and midi or in
the lists opinion is CVS the best tool out there??

Thanks
Aaron
