Abstract
Current solutions to support co-authoring of documents focus on building new systems for participants who are assumed to be connected permanently by a network. We propose an alternate approach, that copes with increasing usage of mobile/handheld devices and heterogeneous editing systems. It contains representatives for mobile participants in a fixed part of the network. By using a global standardized document format and a wide spread platform, the flexibility to constitute arbitrary teams in spontaneous manner is increased.
