Question, could a tree of data be collaboratively edited using this? #10

Let's say two or more people have a common file system and they do operations such as deleting files, moving files and folders. This is a tree structure of folders and files. Can this be applied to collaborative editing of file system?

Hi @PhilAndrew - I think the general approach of using CRDTs ought to be applicable, but I don't exactly know how. The group that created WOOT have a paper that looks relevant: http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.5990

Hope that's some help.
