behance, dribbble, forrst, layervault - any others?
Notable (from ZURB, makers of Forrst), Cage, InVision - all paid tools that offer a level of design-led style facilitation & collaboration. These all can be used to get a clearer vision into the "sausage making" of collaborative design.
With Notable, for instance, I can share a link publicly and get feedback from any party. It lacks the discoverability you'd expect from say, a github, however.
That's some of the same problems we're facing with other tools like LayerVault and Creative Cloud. They lack the social discoverability of github.
Just to let you know. Without knowing your initiative here, I started analyzing collaborative tools for designers on my blog. I've done this in chapters.
Maybe that helps. Let me know what you think.
@xuv This is awesome. If you publish it on your blog we will add it to references, or you can publish it here if you'd like.
@GarthDB I don't mind posting them here. How do you want me to do this? Should I fork or you add me to the list of contributors? Let me know.
@xuv that's up to you. If you want to be involved past this article I'm more than happy to add you to the contributors.
@GarthDB Well, I'm working on a tool right now to try to solve the problems and gather the ideas exposed in the articles I wrote. So I'm definitely interested in the approach you are promoting here. But I don't have a precise idea of what you mean by "getting involved". What is it that you require?
No commitment. We're a pretty easy going bunch. We've had some people write articles as forks, and others do it as contributors on branches. I'll add you if that works.
@GarthDB Ok. As you've seen, I've posted 6 articles on my blog regarding those tools. Should I just copy them all? Not sure about the best approach here.
@xuv it would probably be best to make it one article. You could summarize and point to the original posts, or you can make a long article. Nothing wrong with a long cogent article.
@GarthDB Ok. I'll do a wrap up of all those into one. It'll take me a little time, but I'll do a pull request once it's done.

Not sure how updated this is, but Figma recently launched with multiplayer design (mutliple designers working in the same file at the same time): www.figma.com.
@athyuttamre Thx for sharing the link. I did not write a summary of my articles as @GarthDB suggested. But I'm surely still actively looking and studying for tools in this field.
