So, I didn't see anyone posting this idea, but could the future allow for multi-user editing capability on a single file? Sort of how Microsoft Word/Excel handle their multiuser edits (albeit through SharePoint). But both archimate and docx files are essentially the same sort of xml based zip format. I guess the thing that is missing is some sort of "controller" that handles the read/write/update sort of requests. Looking at the docx architecture and documentation, it seems that beyond a controller scenario, it essentially "locks" small sections (xml blocks) and coordinates activities, otherwise it just updates and makes a signal available for other contributors live.
The reason why this is important is that the existing collaborative plugins are not yet efficient or robust enough to really support multiple team members reliably or is entirely too slow. So, I'm just looking for alternatives.
Just some thoughts. Would really, really, help many.
Happy new year everyone!
