Just rsync the source tree to somewhere that is accessible via http.   
We can then do "darcs get http://www.mu.dk/sources/cl-muproc/".  I  
use darcs locally to develop cl-muproc as well, and this would  
simplify my workflow a bit.  It's not a great deal though as long as  
new releases don't happen daily. :-)

I thought a bit about sending mumsgs between muprocs not running in  
the same Lisp image.  Arthur Lemmens has, in the context of rucksack,  
developed a serialization protocol for arbitrary Lisp objects that  
could be hijacked.  I talked briefly to him at the Lisp workshop of  
ecoop06; he has no interest in factoring out that code himself, but  
thinks it might be a viable method for sending Lisp objects between  
machines.

Cheers,

Rudi
