Oh, oh, one more (stupid) question. Do I really need to install SVN on my Windows XP machine to upload to the src trunk? I couldn't do upload there with my ftp tools or browser (because it is secured).

The thing about SVN is that paths (trunk, branches, tags, etc.) are not really filesystem paths, but paths as described in metadata. So there is no way to directly upload something to a SVN repository via FTP for example. However, if you use SVN, it's still as secure as FTP, because you are connecting via https (SSL) to your repository. TortoiseSVN and RapidSVN are two recommended Windows clients.
If you don't like to use SVN, you can also tar or zip your sources and upload the packed file via FTP. And if you like, I can move them from there locally to your SVN repository (using the appropriate SVN tools).
Give SVN a try, it really comes in handy when working with source codes
