This more belongs on an RelatedPeople page, or RelatedInstitutes, but I want to point out that University of California at Irvine may be a focus for collaboration-related technologies:
- Check out UCI ISR's [research forum], especially [posters and demos]
- [Interactive and Collaborative Technologies] division
- Many people there involved in the [1998 Workshop on Internet Scale Event Notification]
- Jim Whitehead, one of the WebDAV guys and now a prof. at UC Santa Cruz, was a phD student at Irvine under Richard Taylor
