I've been toying with building a system that combines a wiki editing process with Sphinx tools allowing a group of people to write books using restructured text. FLOSS Manuals (http://en.flossmanuals.net/) does a similar thing. I was going to use this system for writing a Miro User Manual and a Miro Development Manual.

There was a GSOC project for Sphinx to allow for inline comments through a web-site. Did that project succeed? I can't remember enough about it to find details or status. That would be a useful feature, too.

I haven't registered with Bookoven, so I can't tell what it does or how it does it. I do think this kind of thing is interesting.

Has anyone tried the service http://bookoven.com/? It sounds like an
interesting experiment in collaborative editing of long-form works.
