The FRA partnership can help these communities form a Web-based collaboratory for sharing information and ideas. Some of the technology the center hopes to incorporate into its models is being tested during the proposal process. The team members planned portions of the proposal on asynchronous and synchronous discussion forums. Also, the visitors to NCSA who were community representatives recruited by the CRCD team for grassroots inputs will use similar technology for submitting feedback. The team has set up online roundtables on the Web.
Big changes are already underway.
