Re: Organizing many programmers
We haven't had quite that many programmers, but once our number got above 3, we started using revision control (CVS). It made keeping track of everything much easier. We used TortoiseCVS as a gui for it, which made it easy for people who were new to CVS to start using it quickly. Subversion is just as good, or better.

LabVIEW does integrate with several revision control systems, and has graphical differencing and merging, but only in the professional version (we are given the Full Development system, which is one level lower).
