With a subversion repository, you wouldn't be. Users would be responsible for upgrading
their own working copies.

It's not a perfect system, but I have to say that I found using subversion was one of
those rare experiences where you think "Why can't everything work this well?" It really is
a tool that will make you life easier. And, while the learning curve isn't flat, it's not
that steep. It's a good mix of functionality and ease-of-use for those of us who aren't
hard-core software engineering types.
Couple it with a SCM tool (e.g. http://www.edgewall.com/trac. I use it here and I believe
MikeG uses that for his idldoc stuff) and you'll be set! :o)
cheers,
