Roger,
I would quite understand that you are busy now,
and I would certainly help with pleasure to maintain/create a svn repository 
server.

If you have a server available I would recommend to have a look to this paper:
  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/

It explains the underlying concepts and
how you can easily setup a svn server.

Common practices (from my humble OSS development experience) are :
    - Any user could access this server in read-only.
    - Official contributers would also have a write access to the repository.
    - Each contributor should work in his own branch and let the project
    manager (Roger?) as the only person to decide what has to be merged,
    after concertation with his team.
    - Small, well-identified bugfix can be commited on the main trunk directly.
    - Any not-trivial change should *never* be commited on the main branch 
before
    the agreement of the project manager and discussion/test  with the team.
    - The project manager decide when to 'tag' a release version and achieve 
    a main release from the main trunk on a regular base.

Nice scripts (from my FLTK project manager) simplifying 
the common svn (create branch/merge/commit)  tasks can be found at:
    http://www.easysw.com/~mike/svn-cheat.html

It seems that you have (at least) two volunteers to be official contributers
 to add in your team if you wish  ;-)

Kind Regards,
Fabien Costantini.

Oron and Fabien,
    I hope to get to your comments soon. Probably we should set up some 
shared repository and I welcome your help and input. As for sysex -- I 
test with the sysex program running a loopback. That works, so I'm 
surprised that there are some problems you report. Definitely that 
should be fixed, and I'm looking forward to integrating your fixes. We 
should also change sysex to detect the bug (and possibly others will 
show up).
    -Roger
