Description: Windows doesn't support the diff3 command needed by SimultaneousEdits, and some PHP environments don't allow the popen command. It'd be nice to come up with a version of simuledits that doesn't require these.

Though there is a cookbook script it would be nic to integrate this feature

Since handling simultaneous edits is a core function on Unix boxes, it should be a platform-independent implementation. I particularly would like to have this feature available on Windoze servers.

Closed this PITS entry, the capability is provided by the Cookbook:SimultaneousEdits recipe.
