Hi,

Perhaps too broad a topic for this board, but I figure I'll give it a
shot...

Having worked with SIMILE Exhibit for the last couple of years, it has
become, along with a number of other JavaScript libraries (most
notably jQuery and many of its plug-ins), one of the "standard
resources" in my set of tools.  I like to shuttle this set of
"standard resources" around between projects, adding further layers of
abstraction, updated versions and new libraries as they become
available.  So far, so good.  The problems I'm running into now are, I
think, related to the increasing size of this set of "standard-
resources" and the lack of a uniform way of "handling" it (moving it
from server to server and managing changes and versions).  I decided
long ago to host these "standard resources" locally on each of the web/
app servers that serve the unique content.  I use Aptana as my IDE of
choice and, although it has a pretty extensive set of integration
options, I am yet to find a satisfactory solution.  I end up
repeatedly ftp'ing huge codebases back-and-forth between my WinXP
client and the various web servers with which I interface.  I have
looked briefly into things like Joomla and Drupal but feel they might
be too restrictive.  On the other hand, something like CVS (with which
Aptana integrates) seems to have no real value in the "web app
world".  Am I making this too complicated?  Does anyone have
suggestions on where or what to look at?

Thanks very much for any advice or suggestions,
-Mark
