    I have been developing a campus-model environment with Andersen Consulting for
    the uses of world-wide training and project collaboration.  We are currently
    designing a client which incorporates not only MOO, but webservers,
    white-boarding, GUI controls, FTP, local program file storage and retrieval
    (powerpoint, word, corel, etc...), and 32-bit/3D graphics for the virtual
    spaces.

     We have already run a pilot for MOO-type training (The pilot tested that it
    could be done, not that it was better than RL) across some of our offices in
    Europe and Scandanavia.  We used a basic, pilot, version of our GUI client for
    this endeavor (did not include white-boarding and 3D graphics), as we are still
    in the R&D phase for the final product.

    David,  if you or anyone else who reads this list is interested in
    collaborating on this type of environment, I am always looking for additional
    input, myself.  So, if you've been making a MOO-client or developing a virtual
    campus..... let me know!
