  1. Supporting Collaboration Jack Suess Jack@umbc.edu

  2. Distributed Multi-level Access • REN-ISAC EAG is looking at membership and security classification models. The challenge is how to manage this without a lot of staff • 200+ institutions and growing • EAG has been discussing a multi-level security model for membership that will evolve over time • Need wiki to manage multi-level security across Wiki, Email, FTP, and Secure IRC • Comanage can offer a way to easily manage access

  3. Distributed Research Collaboration • We have an interdisciplinary group on campus with 75 -100 scientists and a similar number of RA’s. The group operates across 8 buildings and an off-campus facility. • They use blackboard communities to share documents and collaborate but that becomes more painful when adding non-umbc participants • Co-manage with sympa/confluence is ideal for this level of collaboration.

  4. On Campus Student Organizations • UMBC has 220+ student organizations - how do you easily facilitate collaboration. • We use sympa and recently added confluence. • Presently we use BlackBoard communities but that is more than we need and students often don’t look at their community pages. • We want to see CoManage evolve to support a web-services interface. This would allow us to pull this into our portal start-page and give students personalized access to their groups.
