<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Joseph,<br>
<br>
I'm not sure where you've seen this mentioned on our site, but
we've recently written a distributed authoring tool for Bible
scholars to collaboratively transcribe ancient manuscripts for the
Institut für neutestamentliche Textforschung.<br>
<br>
You can see the software here:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ntvmr.uni-muenster.de/transcribing">http://ntvmr.uni-muenster.de/transcribing</a><br>
<br>
Enter into the quick lookup field: p1<br>
press enter, select the first search result, and click on the
first thumbnail (click on the 'open new image viewer hover icon
next to the image if you actually want to see the image of the
manuscript page).<br>
<br>
You can experiment and play with the editor. <br>
<br>
The [Version History] button will let you compare different
versions of your own editions and also compare any of your
versions to the latest version of anyone else who has saved work.<br>
<br>
The ChiRho edit box will let you type any Greek character(s) and
give you paleography assistance.<br>
<br>
The [From Basetext] will load up the editor with data from a
designated basetext for the verses indexed for the image, so the
editor has a place to start.<br>
<br>
The [Discuss] icon will begin a forum message about the content
being transcribed.<br>
<br>
We have project management and work assignment / progress, etc.
builtin.<br>
<br>
And these tools are all integrated into a mature portal
environment so you have all the standard portal tools that come
out of the box: shared calendars, files, message boards, wikis,
etc.<br>
<br>
Not all functionality will be there for you to play with unless
you create an account and login, and then more would be available
if you had admin access, but all of these tools are opensource and
available for you if you feel they are useful for your team.<br>
<br>
Hope this is helpful,<br>
<br>
Troy<br>
<br>
