I accidently sent this to Typhoon, so have now posted to the right place
, (hopefully)


Seems to be that ReST would yet another markup to learn,  where as if we
stick to say Latex or plain text,  we use what we are familar with, and
can go back to concentrating on content,  which is one of the main
points of latex.

pastebin supports LaTex, so i what would be needed is some sort of
website that people working on a paper can log in to, and paste bits of
code, and then perhaps upload pdf, ps, or dvi files to link to the code,

Or even better

something like this

http://codepad.org/

which supports programming languages but set up to deal with latex,
online so select output, hit compile and it produces a pdf or whatever
on the remote server for the team to download and review.

I am sure the above is possible,  not sure how though.

the txt2tags website can take simple mark up and produce latex output,
ok this goes back to what i said earlier,  about learning more mark up,
but it shows that this can be done,  so an online latex collaboration
tool should be possible,  if it concentrated on latex and related such
as bibtex, then it would be a very powerful tool.
