Is web2py is the first approach to The collaborative development directly via online interface ?
What i want to see is , to combine Trac with Web2py Admin . Which we can have full fledge Online Collab development environment(SVN support , Project management , Collaborative Development, Testing , Milestones , Deployment) . If that approach have not tried in any other development environment , This will be greatest thing happen to Collaborative Development of software.
