I've got friends working on projects a bit like this. Markdown served from github pages is nice, as you edit and compare diffs in markdown, but you can get it automatically rendered into a nice readable form too.
My own view though is that the most likely way to fail is to lose motivation, and having interminable discussions over minutia early on while writing is likely to suck away your energy. I'd probably get at least the skeleton of the whole story into your repos before encouraging others to contribute.
Yep, the skeleton for the whole story is ready. I have been pondering about all those main story parts in the past 2-3 years. My next step would be breaking each chapter into smaller parts, without writing down any specific sentence. The last part of the process would be actually writing it.
