I've talked with the animator and with his current location he doesn't have a fast internet connection, he can only download a few Megabyte at a time and downloading 2GB's worth of files would take him about 1 week to download.
So we have a problem, I mentioned that I would look into just getting the main files and the referenced scenes files to him over SVN, but I'm not sure how I'd go about that, I'm going to email Noyx and ask him the same question, I'm posting this on here for you Ted, since I'm not sure if your online.
I could look elsewhere for an animator but for the last few months I've had one or two offers from people who aren't quite up to the level that is required and I don't want to have to look for another few months since the project has been going for sometime…
