An interesting and helpful module!

I have a question about how the module handle the possible editing conflicts, or it doesn't handle conflict at all as it simply adds UI elements for editing page section?

As described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Edit_conflict ?

This module does not have any means of detecting or resolving edit conflicts.

Thank you for clarifying it.

You should look into the checkout module. I don't know if it works with this module or not.

At the moment checkout doesn't integrate with edit_section. I'm about to create a patch for it.

In the mean time edit checkout_get_nid() in checkout.module and change

$patterns = variable_get('checkout_edit_paths', "edit\nrevisions\nrevisions/*\noutline\nclassify");

to

$patterns = variable_get('checkout_edit_paths', "edit\nedit/*\nrevisions\nrevisions/*\noutline\nclassify");

Enn.. we can now avoid conflict. Great! Thank you!

It will be even better if we go further allowing multiple users edit different sections at the same time and system assemblies the edited sections? That means, from the view of user, the locked is section instead node.
