About a two years ago my local LUG (Atlanta Linux Enthusiasts) had a speaker from Emory University to talk about his distance learning/collaborative-computing system call (strangly enough) the Collaborative Computing Framework. It is based on open standards (of course) and at the time clear-board, white-board, and audio were working well across a T1 size pipe. They were working on video, so I assume it is now working as well. It is cross platform (most Unises, linux). It can be found at http://ccf.mathcs.emory.edu/ccf/
.
A year ago, while working at 'the first Caldera Authorized Support Center' as the (ARG!) only tech supporting OpenLinux I helped one of the AOL engineers connect his OpenLinux box to AOL's network (they use radius servers for ppp auth...). I asked and he said (off the record of course) that yes, they were working on creating a linux client. And since they developed it on OpenLinux (think lineo) its a sure bet that linux will be their embeded (sp) platform.
True, true, true... I started at 30K doing tech. support and progect management. That was six months ago, the company doesn't know how to treat its employees so I'm forced to look elseware. Problem is i HAVE to stay in the Atlanta area, for relationship reasons (plus I can't afford a move now anyway), so there's no telling what I'll be able to find.

I want to kick it!
Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!
Yeah, because linux (*nix) is immature as far as operating system services are concerned...
Shmuck.

Just a little note...
