Just a quick. You seem to introduce a practice to use the github tracker instead of xwiki.org jira's
Not sure it's a good thing. I'm sure Vincent will agree
Well, what I would prefer personally is that contrib projects be in the xwiki-contrib organization and use the XWiki tools (wiki, jira, etc). The reason is that this allows: * to group together projects around XWiki (they're not scattered everywhere on the web and harder to find) * make it a neutral location for people to collaborate together on xwiki projects. That's a key element to contribution IMO * is more long term. If you stop working on the project it's not going to be a dead project in someone's github repo and it'll have more chance of being maintained/seen in the xwiki-contrib repo I know Jerome also puts his contributions in his own github project and I had the same reservation about it. We can't force anyone of course since this is a contribution but it's more collaborative to make them xwiki-contrib project, following the rules defined at http://contrib.xwiki.org I understand you may want to beef up your github profile but for collaboration I feel the xwiki-contrib is better with the 2 arguments listed above. Jerome, Caleb let me know what you think. Thanks -Vincent

One other thing, please report the features which you want and what you imagine as best on the github tracker, it's easier to close an issue as "won't fix" than it is to remember an important issue which nobody wrote down ;)
Thanks Caleb

Hi,
Thanks for the complement.
I just updated it and fixed issue #1. Thanks for reporting it. Somehow showing who else is editing, showing where they are editing in the document and allowing the user to spawn a chat window with other editors on the page are all interesting possibilities. Right now I think the thing to do is decide where there is the most bang for your buck in terms of feature value and get an idea of what's most natural for the user.
Thanks, Caleb

Great work!
It looks like good starting point to give xwiki the main (at least for me) feature, that makes googledoc sometimes more suitable for collaborative editing. It would be really great, if your editor would show somehow, where the other editor (person) is now, where is his cursor. Maybe a highlight (the whole line) showing the other's cursor placement? Do you plan to work on such improvements?
