Abstract:
A lock manager is provided for locking documents. In some implementations, the lock manger initiates a first lock on a document that prevents other users from editing the document while it is being displayed to the user. If edits to the document are made by the user, the edits are placed in a queue for subsequent finalization, and a second lock is placed on the document. The second lock prevents other users from editing the document until the edits have been finalized.
