Abstract
Described herein is a computer-implemented collaborative editing system for editing of electronic resources including documents and other electronic information. The system includes: an editor interface for interfacing with an editor executing on a client device, the editor being configured to edit a resource; an editing identity module for causing the processing unit to store a designation of the client device as a privileged or a non-privileged editor; and an editing interface for causing the processing unit to: receive proposed edits to the resource from the editor interface and communicate the proposed edits to a remote collaborative editing service; receive remote proposed edits to the resource from the remote collaborative editing service and in the event that the client device is designated as a privileged editor, accept or reject the remote proposed edits and communicate the acceptance or rejection to the remote collaborative editing service.
