I work for an architectural firm and at some point this year we're going to roll out a GTD app across the board.

Personally I've been using Omnifocus but one feature of another app (Things) that has caught my eye is the ability to collaborate in teams over a network.

Is there any word on whether Omnifocus might soon have this capability?

I don't think anything is coming in this area anytime soon. Communication and Control fall more into the Project Management arena IMO; and it is probably difficult for Omni to determine what PM apps they need to support. OK. Obviously we might hope for MS Project and OmniPlan . . .

Where OF should come in is as part of a workflow that allows assignments and status to flow back-and-forth between each team member's OF database and the project management app.

BTW, there have been two or more threads that covered this topic over the last month or so.
