Hi,
It appears you can try out CC online at this URL...

I may update that at some point, once we get "on our way" a bit further.

Our motivation was to have "collision avoidance" between developers as
well as a stable 'live' environment. In the web environment, "history"
and "don't care" are almost synonymous :-) - however, having worked on
products where support of customers using 5 year old versions of the
software was important, I can certainly understand your point!

So far, so good!
