DocSynch is a collaborative editing system on top of IRC. By transforming single-user editors into multi-user editors, it allows to remotely edit text documents together. Implementations are targeted as extensions to many popular text editors and IDEs.

I have added some developer docs (http://docsynch.sourceforge.net/index.php?page[]=8.Developer_Docs) to the website, including the essential DocSynch class diagram: http://docsynch.sourceforge.net/docs/developer/ds-class-diagram.png. There are also some links to papers about real-time collaborative editing. And last but not least, there are some VIM users interested in collaborative editing for VIM: http://www.vi-improved.com/wiki/index.php/TunnelDataInCommands
I am currently working on my own IRC client called "PlugIRC" which is basically a user-interface widget written in java which shall support Swing, SWT and Windows Forms (via J#). Apart from multiple server-connections and multiple channels in a tab-based layout, it will support "plugins" to automatically intercept and send messages. Once this is finished, DocSynch has a better future in Eclipse and Visual Studio .NET. And the current IRC plugin for jEdit will be replaced (or updated to 3.0), too. Stay tuned!
