I'm trying to understand OT by using the OT Visualization on this site while reading Daniel Spiewak's article on his blog (referenced on this site as well).
The confusion I'm having is that in the OT Visualizer client operations cause the arrow to go right and server operations go left. But in the article above everything is reversed:
The way you should read diagrams like this is as a graphical representation of operation application on two documents at the same time. Client operations move the document to the left. Server operations move the document to the right. Both client and server operations move the document downward.
I realize that completely different people are behind each resource but it would be so much easier to understand if the diamond diagrams were the same between the two places. Especially since the documentation on this site is still a work in progress while Daniels article is today the most comprehensive out there (at least that I could find).
