CW: By doing this, are you trying to make Share and user groups more relevant at a time when the trend seems to be in the opposite direction?
RR: I disagree. I don't think user groups have become less relevant, but I think what we're really doing is getting the word to a broader audience about the kinds of things that Share is involved in and doing. This has to do with the big IT shop, the enterprises -- where are their pain points? Where would they like some relief?
CW: Why is it important for Share to do this?
RR: I think it's important because we're the people in the trenches. We're the people living with these problems, and we need these kinds of solutions.
CW: Many of the things that you are asking for require multivendor cooperation, particularly around standards and interoperability, including file system, identity management and calendaring interoperability. Is that a major thrust?
