This is the first release of this product and we would appreciate your feedback. Please note that remote email and web access is not part of this issue. Both of these will be available through your Internet provider with the use of appropriate browser and IMAP email clients such as Netscape 4.x or via webmail . The next stage of this project is the investigation and installation of proxy-type services to deal with remote access to online materials licensed to Drew, but presently unavailable off campus. A system is in place and will be announced shortly.
Several areas are still in various stages of development.
The primary focus at present is to improve the web services offered. Web-based discussion groups, additional security, and data collection tools are on the wish list. A tool that will allow for extra flexibility on creating more student areas is also in the works. Storage problems have been greatly reduced since the upgrade to Whoville has occurred. The remote access project is also important to the continued use and expansion of these services.
