Maybe something similar to IBM's Eclifox project, but served using the SaaS model? We've seen office applications migrate to the web, why not an IDE?

Jon- You may not have heard of us because the industry / concept of commercial source code hosting, and providing essential change management tools as a service (i.e. Subversion, CVS, Trac, Bugzilla, etc.) is still somewhat novel. But it makes a lot of sense, saves a lot of money- and we're lucky to have loyal customers (http://cvsdude.com/testimonials.pl). Competitors include any major software change management solution.

We're excited about the partnership. @ Joel - We'll continue to offer our existing SVN solution which remains a free option and one that is integrated with your oDesk team room. CVSDude provides more fine-grained management of repository permissions and other goodies, though, if you desire a greater level of control. @ Ryan - Thanks for sharing.

All the Subversion ports in our office are currently being used by customers, and I was forced to use local subversion. I just opened a CVSDude account and I am now using that for free. I dunno how long I can keep it under 2 megs, but if you don't commit image files, then you are pretty much set. Losing images is no big deal anyway. You can just email them to the other developers and share the same username, to keep it free. I had never heard of CVSdude before.

Granted, we don't use oDesks existing solution, and I am sure most other companies don't either because, well, it sucked. Its good to see that they are willing to move onto better things instead of holding onto something that isn't working for them.

If 40K companies use this software solution already, that means there is a heck of a lot of potential growth to still happen considering I never heard of these guys before. Who are their competitors?
