Very interesting indeed. Our peer-to-peer collaboration feature is shaping up very nicely. We would like to (eventually) integrate this to the olpc avhai peer detection system. The idea is that the child hits the collaboartion button and sees a list of his friends on the network he can collaborate with. >From our perspectie it is actually easier if there were a C-based API that gives this. From my brief snoops through the sugar codebase I see that all the peer-to-peer stuff is in python. Are there any plan ot provide C (or C++) wrapper for that? I'll look at the jounraling stuff with interest. We have two options. One to write the document to disk upon focus change or to actually record each operation on the document model to a journal file. Playing these back restores the document. This also makes use of the collaboration code. On disk document storage is pretty efficient if we write gzipped abiword format.
