I would humbly suggest that this is the wrong goal. Collaboration
should be based on sharing data, not requiring the use of the same
program.
I'd mention a program called AATranslator
(http://www.aatranslator.com.au/) in this context. Its a windows
program, though it will run in Wine on Linux and OS X. It will allow
your collaborators to use whatever software they want on their
platform of choice, and simply convert from one session file format to
another. I have no stake in AAtranslator, but I am happy that an
upcoming release will include support for Ardour.

and yeah, it would be nice if this was open source etc, but seriously
- this is an incredibly niche market and the work involved to reverse
engineer these formats is substantial and ugly.
