11. Current Status   Deploying multi-cast enabled applications on Internet2 continues to be very, very painful!   Increased traction and interest in development and deployment of rich collaborative applications in conference/classroom settings   Current development focus   Enabling ConferenceXP applications to work well over wireless – for conference/large lecture scenarios   Improved Error Correction (Reed-Solomon)   Support for re-transmission of documents and ink data streams   Improved usability and diagnostics

12. Getting Involved   Joint the ConferenceXP Community site   Deploy a ConferenceXP Personal Node   Talk to us about your ideas for cool, collaborative applications that can be enabled over ConferenceXP
