Hi Abhishek, I worked on this idea during the previous summer. Have a look at the following pages to have a little insight:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Dash1291/GSoC_2012_Application https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Dash1291/GSoC_status https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Dash1291/Thoughts So, if you've read through my application, you would know my project revolved around implementing the Phase 1 of the whole collaboration thing. During my timeline, I was able to implement the basic phase1, including some basic tests. After that, I've retouched the code with occasional refactoring to make sure the code is in a good state to be extended with phase 2 features. Moreover, there is a tiny bit of conflict resolution code that I've written, but its not integrated in the workflow yet. You can take a look at the state of the code in this remote branch[1]. I would be happy to help with the code if you want to extend the work. Good luck!
