Floobits plugin for Emacs
Real-time collaborative editing. Think Etherpad, but with native editors. This is the plugin for Emacs. We also have plugins for Sublime Text, Vim, and IntelliJ.
Development status: Reasonably stable. We've tested it on Emacs 24 and later. Earlier versions probably won't work. This plugin requires Python 2.7 or later.
