Hear about the limitations of Web APIs, and checkout some of the metrics we have gathered around how people collaborate on-line, and the engineering decisions that flow from that. Hear about our new approaches to handle collaboration, off-line, conflicts, and forthcoming protocol to negotiate transitions between co-editing, sharing, on-line and off-line. Finally catch up with the latest in UX research, interoperabiltiy and feature improvements as well as seeing how to get involved with the project.
