Existing solutions for the collaboration over XML documents are limited to a centralised architecture. In this paper we propose an approach for peer-to-peer collaboration over XML documents where users can work off-line on their document replica and synchronise in an ad-hoc manner with other users. Our algorithm for maintaining consistency over XML documents recursively applies the tombstone operational transformation approach over the document levels.
