WebRC: Configuration Management for a Cooperation Tool
P. Fröhlich and W. Nejdl
Abstract
Recently, several document management systems supporting asynchronous
cooperation over the world-wide web have been proposed. Such systems
provide access controlled areas for sharing objects related to a
specific topic among a group of people working together. Configuration
Management Support is however not present or very much restricted in
these systems. We argue that such support is necessary and discuss how
configuration management concepts should be integrated in cooperation
tools. We describe our WebRC system, the first web-based cooperation
tool with full configuration management support.
