Multiuser library?

Hi all,

I have read a significant number of posts warning about what might happen when sharing libraries
Message received, but... I still have the need to share ebooks with the family

What I'm doing so far is a (more or less) regular export/import of the library
Not very complicated, but time consuming and frustrating for the users of the "slave" libs: information such as book read and rating are individual by nature and not related to a specific book, so several persons might have different opinions about the same book
Using Dropbox or other sync tools does not help keeping track of individual stuff like this

Anyway, I'm not the only Calibre user in desire of a true multiuser design, I would like to know if there is any progress since this post from Jan 2010
