Definitely has my interest!!

Useful collaboration is _really_ tough, your Groupthink potentially  
offers a generalised sync solution for many Activity authors. Concrete  
example for me: It would seem to make a good collaboration back end  
for Labyrinth mind-maps. Mind-maps are generally fairly small (XML)  
documents (at least good ones are). Labyrinth does support adding  
drawings and images as nodes, but I can try to deal with those as  
unique hashed text identities for collaborative sessions, and transfer/ 
sync their actual raw content via other mechanisms when they change.

Would be great to have the ability for a handful of folks to  
collaborate on creating mind-maps together in realtime.
