Collaboration framework

["Wout heeswijk, van" <wout van heeswijk chello nl>]

Hi All,

I recently discoverd that abiword has the ability to host and join collaborative sessions. Gobby is a text editor that uses this functionality to. Can developers comment on the question wether it possible to create something like HAL for collaborative work. Would it be possible to create a framework based on a plugin like system which enables developers to create collaborative programmes relatively easy.

What are your thoughts on this??
