RE: [MSUNAG] IT Collaboration Tools

Rich,

Thanks for the information on this, I didn't realize that ACNS was working on something, I didn't mean to jump ahead of them.  Thanks for updating us, now that we know we can look forward to seeing something from the meeting.

In ACNS we're glad to see all the enthusiasm coming out of last Friday's IT
Exchange.  A  small team of ACNS staffers already has begun investigating
alternatives such as Wikis to create a collaboration environment for IT
staff at MSU.  The goal is to build a prototype that we can all try.

Troy, would you like to join that team in its investigations?   If any
others would be interested, please send me a private note.
