WWW5 Workshop on VEs and the WWW
at the
Fifth International World Wide Web
Conference.
[Old page updated in order to kill the links to the now dead discussion server. If you are interested in the WWW-MOO
technology used to prepare this
event,
check out its successor technology:
APECKS, also developed by Jeni Tennison - DKS 9/97]
1. Discussion Server 
A WWW-based discussion/annotation forum at
http://spsyc.nott.ac.uk:5555/"
has been used to
prepare the workshop and to organize activities after the workshop.
Original papers prepared by the participants are integrated into
its "Living Document System" [Note 9/97: this server has killed now].
This Forum is open for everybody interested in Virtual Environments.
Includes: Home pages of some participants, a list of guest,
original papers, pointers to "Living Document System" versions
of papers, link to a FTP directories with Postscript files.
A copy of the page sent to the organizers
(Yes we just might merge the 2 lists after the workshop).
