I'm looking for a program/system to help with the following problem:
A small group of people are working together on a paper. We are at
different sites, but can send email to each other. We can not communicate
via TCP/IP (telnet, rsh, rlogin, etc.) Each person will "own" part of
the paper. I would like that person to be able to give an "update" command,
and have the section he is working on sent to the other people. Therefor,
each person would have the most up to date versions of everyone else's
sections to work off of. I imagin each person would want to update his
section every week or two. Email seems to take one or two days. Rarely,
every month or two, a section would be transfered to a new owner.
I'm sure I can kludge something up, using shell, rcs (or sccs), mail, and
make, but I would rather not reinvent the wheel. Does anyone have anything
like this?
