An escrow system would work great!! I have purchased all
the domain names that I think would work well for an AV
escrow company and will have something up soon. It won't
be cheap but at least there will be a middleman.
Do I have permission to add this to my list of all time ridiculous business ideas? Let's see:
1. You are in the business so you are ostensibly asking your competitors to store their code with you.
2. This is just who people want to store their code with - a brand new business with 0 experience and 0 infrastructure set up for it.
There are already any number of established companies set up for this type of thing. Also, the good ones also have a system in place if disaster were to befall the escrow company (one of your points I did not quote) so that's a red herring too.
