We intend enhancements to some applications -- such as full annotation (on the Java Whiteboard) with database access and archiving in WebWisdomNT
We will evaluate Internet Explorer version (prototype available), Macintosh and AIX support
Archive audio-video conferencing, text chat etc.
Looking into a built in window manager, more automatic support for mirror (content) servers
Link Tango user module with administrative (class) database -- link Tango and conventional mail
Lots of interesting assessment opportunities
Could build Collaboratory tools -- scientific visualization will be supported but also could do debuggers, performance visualizers etc.
EOT PACI has identified NCSA Biology Workbench, BU Biology database, and for K-12 Belvedere annotation system
