Collaborative Modeling with Papyrus and CDO (Reloaded)

Since the beginning of this year I've been working on fundamental improvements to the user interface of CDO and its integration with Papyrus. In particular CEA has generously funded the following:
  • Branching and interactive merging
  • Support for offline checkouts
  • Interactive conflict resolution
Most of the new functionality has been implemented directly in CDO and is available for other modeling tools, too. Please enjoy a brief tour of what's in the pipe for the Mars release:


The following screencast shows how Papyrus will integrate with this new CDO user interface:


I hope you like the new concepts and workflows. Feedback is welcome, of course. And I'd like to thank CEA, Kenn Hussey and Christian Damus for their help to make this happen!
