A team being paid to outsource development for you has the same 
considerations as a company no matter what they call themselves.

You're talking about synchronising two cvs servers 24/7 between 
development teams over dialup - what I'm saying is that it's doomed to 
failure from the start, because dialup simply is not practical for that 
kind of work.

Stick to one server hosted on a proper server (possibly in the US if you 
don't have local hosting companies), and have the developers dialup when 
they need to commit if they really are stuck on such slow links, so 
you're not dragging down the entire development process to the speed of 
the slowest developer.
