Yes, I can see that being able to work on the same document can have advantages, but I'm not \
sure it should be implemented like in CVS. It would be far better to be able to see all the \
proposed changes at once (using colors is a possibility) and to allow someone to do the final \
editing, accepting or rejecting the changes.

As for the 'wish' itself. Consider the situation now : you get no warning and you can happily \
overwrite the work of a collegue. The 'Kate' solution. If I understand it correctly, you get no \
warning when you open a file but when you want to save you can still choose to overwrite, i.e. \
to throw away the changes made by someone else and all this without him knowing...Now, if you \
can only open in 'read-only' mode, at least you know that you will have to save under a \
different filename, or try to track down the guy that has the file open (having this info pop \
up could also be a feature of a possible solution). I can live with that. \
