Sounds very interesting :) Thanks, would be great if it can improve your work. What's the overhead like? Would it be smaller than that of VNC, as you are essentially only sending text back and forth? It is much smaller than VNC, because only the diff of the text is send via XMPP. So only (compressed)text is send.
When both parties save an edited file, does it get stored in the local workspace as usual? Wouldn't it cause conflicts if you are using version control? Yes, the files are stored in the local workspace and are kept sync between users. The normal way you work is that the host shares his/the project with others. But everybody can also just check out the project via svn/git/etc. before they start a session. In don't know if i got your question right. Derived files aren't send via Saros, e.g. .svn isn't synchronized.
