[request] multiple people building site at same time

Hi
I have an issue that’s cropped up because I am working on two sites with another person who is working on the css and layout. She is located somewhere else. We we having obvious overwriting issues when more than one person is working on building a site at the same moment. I’ve looked about but am unable to find a plugin or hack that will show who is logged in to the admin side. At present we are resorting to texting one another whenever someone logs in to work on a site. Does anyone have any tips?
Thanks,
Peter

TXP doesn’t actually log hits from backend to log, but txp logs when user have last time seen, meaning when user last time logged in. So, it can be used to build a plugin. Basically.

Thanks Gocom,
I have found something that will work in the meantime – popping this discretely into the footer form during development:
<txp:php>echo $GLOBALS['prefs']['lastmod'];</txp:php>

(found at this always handy page: http://www.focusontheclouds.com/home/articles/72/accessing-global-variables-in-textpattern )
