It looks really nice, and talking about collaborative editions in
vim, I'm currently writing a plugin that enables collaborative editions
using Etherpad.

http://github.com/guyzmo/vim-etherpad/

I'm currently having some troubles finishing to port the Changeset
library for operational tranformations from JS to python, but it does
work 100% from server to client, and about 60-70% for the client to
server updates.

The advantage over CoVim is that it supports already existing
collaborative editors, and enable one to work with non-vim users.
Ultimately, I'd like the plugin to support not only etherpad, but
also other kind of collaborative frameworks (like gobby and share.js).

It may be also a good idea to merge my work with CoVim ultimately,
to support both their system, and existing systems.

Any help is welcome in improving that library, and I hope I'll come
back soon to make a 1.0 anouncement ;-)

Cheers,
