I have to echo loudly the sentiments expressed above. One must be very very careful allowing someone else access to your hard work. There's a legion of "experts" out there who will pop up on any new server offering to help, usually to the detriment of the project. In fact, one can often trace the start of the decline of a server from the very moment some of these worthies appear on the scene.

Be cautious, and pay attention to quality advice from the players. Long time emu players seem to know who to watch out for more than many devs, sadly. Every other spankmaster who maybe thumbed a copy of Perl for Dummies one day on the bus seems to think he's a top-notch coder. Sorting these out fast will be your first and most important task when hiring an assistant.

LOL. Just kidding. It's good advice, obviously not read often enough.
