+* Emacs as a collaborative operating system
+
+The goal: With a few annotations, developer should be able to make any Emacs 
application 
+collaboration-powered. Emacs should be one of the most powerful collaboration 
platforms.
+
+How: There're plenty of Emacs applications centered around the buffer and 
buffer-local-variables.
+By implementing synchronization primitives for all components in a buffer,
+pretty much everything can be made collaborative.
+Synchronize arbitrary buffer-local-variable reasonably is hard, but user 
annotations can help.
