Very good idea, however dropbox is not the best solution for software revision management. If you are programming in JAVA or C I strongly reccomend using SVN, this will allow you to commit changes, allow you to see who is working (or has worked) on what and you can always roll back to older versions. Both windRiver and NetBeans have plugins for SVN. I am not sure if LabVIEW supports svn but I do recall a thread discussing it a while back.
