Looks cool! Integrating collaboration in the simple way I did it should be a piece of cake, feel free to contact me privately if you need any help running etherpad, it is mostly tweaking a few settings and putting nginx on front of it.

I have been involved in many teams where we used PlantUML for sequence diagrams, which are specially helpful to explain a complex process. To me, I have saw considerable performance improvements when sharing sequence diagrams to devs that a

Actually, those icons look very nice, right now, the app uses the public plantuml server, which means that I can't control any settings it runs with.
