I am working on writing a paper outline with some friends about starting
Master program in a Palestinian university for Sustainable Development
In-Action
So I would like to know about your favorite platform to share working on
such a document.

It looks like they took over development of 'booki' platform running: http://www.flossmanuals.net/ Promo video on booktype page looks quite promissing :)
I have found that pads can be slightly unreliable (possibly more to do with where they were hosted?), I've never lost data but twice (with different pad sites) have not been able to access them. Now I take regular(ish) exports when working on pads.

Yes, etherpad is very useful for working together on the same part of a
document.
I was going to suggest Wagn as a good choice (http://wagn.org) for
organizing outlining and all that sort of thing for a larger project
where different people are working on different parts. That's the sweet
spot for Wiki generally and Wagn is a particularly powerful wiki.
I have to do a bit more work to make it ready to deply, but I have done
a proof of concept where you can have an etherpad connected to a Wagn so
that a group can open up an etherpad on a particular Wagn page, but you
also store it as a versioned page in the Wagn at the end of a session.
That way it is also integrated with the content that is further along
and committed to published pages.
The openstewardship.* domains are all Michael Maranda's and the etherpad
runs on my server.
