[xwiki-devs] [Contrib] Include a generic Realtime Collaborative Editor Algorithm project in xwiki-contrib.
Hi, I'd like to propose inclusion of an exciting new Realtime Collaborative Editor backend algorithm in xwiki-contrib. The Algorithm which we are calling ChainPad is based on the Nakamoto BlockChain of Bitcoin fame and uniquely exists entirely on the client side, without the server having any knowlege of the document content. This means collaborative textareas, WYSIWYG editors and even collaborative drawing/whiteboarding could be possible without any modification to the server side code. It could potentially even run entirely peer-to-peer, although this avenue has not been explored. The code as it stands today is in: https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdrt but I'd like to move it to xwiki-contrib/chainpad. WDYT? Caleb
Big +1 of course, this is awesome! :) I’m eager to try it out.

Done. https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/chainpad Unfortunately this is only an algorithm/engine, so you won't be able to try it out directly. There is already an extension based on it which you can see here: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/RtWiki Thanks, Caleb On 03/12/2014 12:15 AM, [email protected] wrote:

Sure and I tried it but it only does plain text, not WYSIWYG… :) Thanks -Vincent

Ahh but you must stop to smell the mathematical flowers of an algorithm which has never before been implemented. And your WYSIWYG will come in good time. :) Thanks, Caleb On 03/12/2014 10:24 AM, [email protected] wrote:
