Microsoft/Groove

From the Groove Webinar, a PowerPoint presentation with some good descriptions of where Groove fits in to various modes of collaboration. This .ppt deck also includes some screenshots of existing MS/Groove technology links: the Outlook on-ramp, Word co-editing, Microsoft Project import/export, Messenger integration, and SharePoint Portal.

This last hasn't been de-geeked yet -- you can see all the portal metadata, with PROP_DAV_stuff, which means nothing to me -- but looks promising. (It's running on a server called BORG - this means nothing, but note that "Starfleet personnel are to maintain the utmost caution when encountering the Borg".)
