Abiword
AbiCollab is an Abiword plugin for collaborative edition. Several users can edit the same document together and see their respective contribution as soon as the network latency permit it. It uses algorithms explained in this article on the GNOME Journal.
AbiCollab can use several backends to communicate with the contacts:
- With the tcp backend, the user must set the IP address of its contacts.
- With the xmpp backend, Abiword connects to the user's Jabber server and the user choose its contact from the contact list. Abiword data is sent directly in xmpp messages encoded in base64.
The sugar backend is used on OLPC, and data is sent through a stream tube as others OLPC activities. The tube specification is not the same as the current Telepathy spec.
- It would be great to add a backend that uses Telepathy tubes and Mission Control.
The current stable version does not have AbiCollab. You can test it with the development version 2.5.0 or the latest SVN version. I have made a screencast with the xmpp backend: user1 user2.
