Hi Caleb,
This is great progress ! Way to go.
Some improvements, sorted by priority from my POV:
- Support real-time editing on an object Textarea field Not sure I understand this, you mean for inline edit? if so, there will of course be issues with input fields, checkboxes, and radio bubbles.
- The current textarea does not allow to do a select All of the text Added an issue for select all with ctrl+a as well as save (alt+s) and save+continue (shift+alt+s) https://github.com/cjdelisle/xwiki-platform-realtime/issues/3
- XEM compatibility either as an extension for the global wiki, or as a template based install (right now you have to install the XAR in each wiki) https://github.com/cjdelisle/xwiki-platform-realtime/issues/2
- Install through extension manager https://github.com/cjdelisle/xwiki-platform-realtime/issues/4 easy to do as long as XEM support still requires manual intervention
I think the rest of these issues fall in the "refactor realtime editor" category. I started a draft here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/RealTimeEditor So we can talk about what is best for the next generation of the editor. Thanks, Caleb
- See who's editing - Auto-saving - Handling merging if there has been a concurrent editing - Support a live switch from wiki editing to real-time editing

Hi Caleb,
Ok I've played with it, very cool! :)
Some next steps: * Make it a real extension installable with the Extension Manager: ** Move the project to xwiki-contrib and release a first 1.0 version of the JAR and XAR in the xwiki maven repo for contrib
Slightly later: * Add an Extension Point for the Edit menu and transform the JS Skin extension into a UI Extension
Of course in term of the editor itself there are a few things to improve. Some ideas: * Release the lock only when all the editors have either cancelled or saved the document so that someone who edits in wiki mode gets a lock dialog box if someone is still editing it * See who's editing + colors to differentiate users * Use a textarea similar to the wiki editor one (no line number, same font, etc)
Thanks -Vincent

Hi guys,
I just finished repackaging the realtime collaborative editor which was developed as part of wiki/3.0. It is now installable as an extension. It's still a bit rough around the edges but it's pretty safe to play with so everyone is invited to give it a try.
* Multiple users can edit the same document at the same time and their changes are merged in real time.
* The "RealTime Wiki" editor is an option along side WYSIWYG and Wiki so it won't break existing editors.
* Easy installation by copying a .jar file and importing a .xar file, removal is simply deleting 2 XDocuments.

Please feel free to share your experiences in the mailing list, on the
extension wiki page and on the
github bug tracker.
Thanks, Caleb
