Errr, built in maybe, but also undocumented?

Abiword _could_ really need an as exhaustive documentation as e.g. *duck*
OpenOffice.

The main function I need is that

- several authors can edit the same document simultaneously (without the
requirement to be on-line), without overwriting each other's modifications
- the modifications of the different authors can easily be visualised
(="redlining"), compared and merged
- each author can then easily update his branch with the accepted
modifications

Sincerely,

Wolfgang Keller
