SubEthaEdit is Mac-only software, which sort of rules it out as a competitor.

I wish there was a standard protocol for collaborative text editing, so that SubEthaEdit and Etherpad (for instance) could talk to one another. (Google Wave doesn't count, since it's trying to do much more than text editing.)

Perhaps a well-defined subset of Wave? Wave is to EtherTextEditProtocol as XML is to Atom?
