What I think is missing is not the description of a specific protocol,
but a higher-level spec of basic capabilities needed for the
collaborative editing support in Emacs. Is this available anywhere?
If not, could someone please write it up?
For example, one thing that strikes me is why "collaboration" via a
dVCS is not a good solution, or at least the basis of a solution? Am
I missing something?
