It would be a good idea is if there was a check in / check out / part in
progress type feature for this too. so that if a developer begins to work
on a part, noone else wastes time on the same part, and maybe even has
access to the other persons work in progress so that if a part gets halfway
complete and the developer goes awol, someone else can pick up where they
left off.
