Yes, definitely! @ben
has the main idea brewing, but from what I understand, we want to implement a review process similar to Google Docs. We have a tool that currently works, but it's meant for single line comments.
This may not be all that known, but your drafts are shareable via the link. Right now, people can leave comments on that draft, but the issue is that they persist after publishing. I think a cool -- also short term -- solution would be to delete all those comments after publishing.
What you could do right now is write up a draft of your article with "DRAFT" in the title and have people comment under the article. Once you're ready to publish, you can copy and paste over the Markdown as a new article, change the title, and publish the new article.
I'm a fan of Open Source and have a growing interest in serverless and edge computing. I'm not a big fan of spiders, but they're doing good work eating bugs. I also stream on Twitch.
Nothing is right around the corner, but you can definitely bet this is a use case we want to handle very well long-term.
Synchronous collab like Google docs and async like version control both have a place. The power of a platform like this is that we can collectively keep articles from going scale and overall improve the quality. We're only dreaming of that now, but we'll get there eventually.

Cool I didn't know that was possible.
Cool, thanks for the inside scoop Andy!

Cool beans Ben. No rush, was just curious and I was testing out the #meta tag 😉. Collab Google Docs style would be awesome.
