Meeting notes
RTC BOF at Fall 2004 Internet2 Member Meeting:
Thursday September 30, 2004
We had a breakfast meeting during the Fall I2 member meeting at 7:15-8:45 AM Thursday September 30, 2004.
Session Abstract: What are the motivating forces in our institutional cultures that impact usage of collaborative technologies? This BOF focuses on real-world collaborations from the user's perspective, often discussing case studies of projects that use collaborative technologies in order to understand what makes them successful...or not. The BoF serves as a technical vetting organization, giving feedback to vendors and identifying best practices for our end-users. Attendees are encouraged to bring short case studies of their own to share. Breakfast will be served at 7:30am.
