Add incubation to build (create an incubation feature)
Real-time Collaboration
Remy is investigating the distribution and synchronization of workspace resources at the project level (see bug 239048).
Discussed with Neil briefly over this:
- Are there real use cases? It sounds cool, yes, but who's going to use this?
- Forced to assume that "everything" is synchronized prior to sharing the project.
- If this is not true, a long time may be required to synchronize the projects before work can begin.
- Will this synchronization mechanism encourage novice hackers to not use an SCM system and to then use it as a poor man's peer-to-peer SCM system?
