Deploy module would love your help! I have the week off next week and I plan to spend as much of it as needed getting to the goal of a beta-quality release (I have a version that is very close, but a lot of it hasn't been checked in.) At that point I will be looking for a lot of testing so please do get in touch.

I will definitely look into helping out with this module in any way possible.

Sounds identical to http://drupal.org/project/deploy -- the DeploymentAPI project.
I am sure heyrocker would appreciate any help you can provide.

I just had an idea for a module and thought I would throw it out to the development community and hopefully get some feedback on it. I searched Drupal and couldn't find anything already offering this functionality.
I'm not sure how common it is with everyone else, but every site I build has a test site on my test server and a live site on my live server. It is not a complicated process to push the test site to the live site, but it is a time consuming one, so why not have a module do it for you?
A beginning set of steps: 1. Backup up database 2. Upload Added/Modified/Deleted changes to files 3. Update database
The module would need to allow you to specify an ftp location to upload the files to and also allow permission to update the database.
I am not as advanced a programmer as some of you so I am hoping for any feedback. Let me know what you think?
