This allows Pd users to practice 'extreme programming' (aka 'XP') in realtime over the internet. XP is the practice of 2 or more programmers working on the same code at the same time collaboratively.
Collaborative programming may be nice, but I'm sorry to tell you that it's not what Extreme Programming is at all.
Here is a webpage that explains it better than I ever could, as it is written by Ron Jeffries himself.
Ok, so maybe I don't have the business practices and team management included yet, but maybe I am going to ;). But based on the 'Core Practices', I would say that this qualifies as XP:
Core Practices: Simple Design, Pair Programming, Test-Driven Development, Design Improvement, Continuous Integration, Collective Code Ownership
especially when you consider the focus on 'Pair Programming'.
