Sweet.

A cunning plan.  I'd be happy to put together a flowchart of our process if
anyone else wants greater detail.

Get all your current code into your source control system as a baseline.  Work
on a checked out version on your workstation.  Check functionally complete code
in.  Make builds from CVS (or whatever) and NOWHERE else.  Test it up the wazoo.
 Get **paper** signoff and file it.  Deploy.  Your arse no longer in sling.

Plugs into Eclipse, although Rob Rohan has a CFEclipse bundled release
available.

See above.

Google for the "CVS Daily Use Guide".  Also, read Geoff Bowers' talk from last
year's MXDU - http://www.mxdu.com/go/agenda/experience/taming-the-code.

Welcome.  Email me offlist if you need more clarification.
