I agree to some extent, but having to work on designs with *text only* is not 
very efficient; some form of virtual whiteboard would make things a lot 
smoother and preciser.

At this point my dream would be to enhance the wiki [1] to allow 
*editable drawings* on the wiki pages. Ideally, embedding SVG drawings in the 
wiki pages and using a simple drawing/scribbling applet to collaborate on 
them.

How does this sound? Anyone know of existing tools for this (jdk 1.1 
drawing applet, wiki extensions)?.

[1] Next week I'll try to write at least one message that does not contain 
the word "wiki". I promise ;-)
