If you don't have to work on it at the same time, using a version control system is a good way to collaborate. > I know there is gobby for that: > http://gobby.0x539.de/trac/wiki/Screenshots but it is for X only. > > Unfortunately vim do not offer this options of multiplayer edition, or > not yet.

There has been various discussions[0][1][2] about adding such functionality to Vim. It is also on Vim's voting list[3] for features, but is not very high so I doubt it will get implemented soon. Regardless, this isn't something that will be implemented as a patch to the Debian package. It would be a very large amount of work and is best done with close coordination to upstream.
