Problem? Not necessarily. Important issue? Yes.

I would not consider doing *anything* without version control anymore, and if 
that excludes one or the other possible collaborator so be it.
But I think it *is* doable and in any case worth the effort learning it. With " 
Das trunkne Lied" we had a few people who learned it along the way, and not 
software developers. But we also had people who decided not to join.
