That may very well be the definition of "collaborative editing", but theEmacs developers (the antecedent of "they") collaborate (i.e. work together) asynchronously from distant time zones.
if you think this has anything to do with version control (two people editing the same file at different times, saving revisions and storing version info), then you have missed the point of the collaborative editing concept. at the end of a collaborative editing session, one person would commit the file to the version control system with a Changelog.
Sounds spiffy! -- Kevin Rodgers
