it makes a lot of sense, so: +0 for 1: it would be nice to have it, it would be nice to have it working properly (having people *really* collaboratively watching) but that is not the purpose I started this thread for. +1 for 2, since this one is :). But now we're back one mail to the upgrade problem: I would like to have always the last version of watch running in the playground, which could require platform / XE upgrades, from time to time, since the plugins & modules that watch is using don't really have their own lifecycle, yet. And one more thing, I'm not very up to date with how it works, but isn't the playground cleaned daily?
