There is a couple of projects that worked over the network. SC2 had
an OSC layer that was used by quite a few people. For example Ron
Kuivila did a workshop (ICMC Berlin 2000) with networked sound
compostion (Rhizome Café, an extension of David Tudor's Rainforest).
(There was actually a short breakout of live coding after I was fed
up with gui)
Some other projects are mentioned here:

I had written a shared control space for sc2 we sometimes used in seminars.
Alberto de Campo and I have a workshop/performance series called
Warteraum (like waiting space or waitingroom) which is about
networked live coding. It uses two paradigms, one is algorithmic
granular synthesis, the other is using a shared version of jitlib
that allows to share continuous sound processes. SC3 is always a
server client structure, so the scaling towards a multiclient
multiserver architecture is fairly straightforward. I've written a
broadcast server that helps to distribute messages to various users.
We also use a chat to transmit code, which is a simple thing but has
proved very effective. Out of this seminars also comes a performance
group, 'powerbooks unplugged'.
