Nobody's asked this, so: I've been fascinated with operational transformation for some time, but I haven't found anything that breaks it down into understandable steps.
I vaguely recall that last time I poked around I found an extremely high-level algebraic breakdown that made no sense, and only after a _lot_ of digging was I able to turn up an actual example implementation that wasn't 100% useless (because contextless) theory.
I fear that understanding OT is a case of for example spending 6 months reading Etherpad.
