Hi,
We've had previous discussions on whether or not it's useful to have some
kind of real-time collaboration in LyX.
The death of wave seemed to reinforce the idea that this is not a killer
feature, and people don't need it. Collaboration using a VCS is sufficient.

Well, recently I found two counterexamples.
One is http://docs.latexlab.org
A decent latex editor built on top of google docs.
The other one is... abiword. surprised :) ?
While being a crappy word processor, it's actually better than anything
built within a browser:

I still think LyX would benefit from such functionality.
Thoughts?

Best,
-Jose
