The title says collaborative, but the about says: "easy to collaborate-n-reuse: text-only, so bring your own VCS"

If it requires a VCS isn't everything collaborative?

It does not _require_ a VCS, but you can bring/use your own quite easily. Why? because most of the slide sources are in text format, so working with them under version control is easy compared to the big binary blobs known from powerpoint/pages/...

Thanks, I understand that.

It's just that I would expect it to be built in if you're mentioning it in the title of the submission like that.

Merging text-based markup is a lot easier than e.g. PowerPoint files.
