Moving to Sqlite for local databases is going to be a real game changer. SQLite has database diff and merge tooling out of the box, there is even some git support for it somewhere. Sharing models and settings alongside source code, branching and merging models and settings across projects for small teams. All sorts of fun. As SQLite tooling is available on pretty much every platform, copies of model databases can potentially be used as a source artifacts or configuration artifacts by downstream tools, without the need to spin up an EA instance or export any XML...
It also looks like the desktop is including more Javascript driven UI components... Will we see a true cross platform EA? An Electron based Desktop version that uses Prolaborate UI technology?
Pure DB Merge will not be helpful - similar to XMI Textbase Merge - but we work on a LemonTree with SQL Lite support as we speak - and we have tools that make those artifacts available in the pipeline aswell
