I think your definition and Scott's definition of collaboration may differ.  It 
certainly differs with mine. Usually it involves working with other people, so 
seeing if there's a halfway-there tool you could extend (and talking to those 
involved both in its creation and use beforehand), rather than being a lone 
hacker, would fit my definition better.
