As regards your friends who want to help: they can write, compile and link code on their PCs, if you give them the Yaroze GNU setup. However, they cannot test that code; you'd also need ways of re-integrating the projects from N different people's modifications. The easiest ways if you all work on independent things; since it's frustrating and slow progress for programmers to work on code they cannot run, it's perhaps best if the others concentrate on design issues, graphics, sound, and testing.
