OUTREACH -- C/C

Since our primary effort this year focused on the Tango Interactive
electronic collaboration system for use in education, training, and
small-group collaboration, our outreach efforts focused on enlarging
the base of knowlegable and experienced users of the system as a base
to help support broader deployment of the tools.  This work was
conducted with on-site Training and C/C (or equivalent) support
personnel at the four MSRCs, as well as staff at the Naval Research
Lab in DC.  Our collaborators at the Ohio Supercomputer Center gained
experience not only operation and support of Tango from the point of
view of course recipients, but also as instructors.  All four MSRCs as
well as OSC now have Tango server installations and along with NRL
have substantial experience with the client side of the system.  This
group of experienced users will form a core of support that will
facilitate wider use of Tango for both training and other
collaborative applications in the coming years.
