| dc.description.abstract | Groupware normally offers only fixed functionality, which can be a
poor match to the actual needs of particular group. We argue that groupware
should be extensible by third party developers, and describe groupware
plug-ins as a method that enables this. Using the Community Bar (CB) as a
case study, we illustrate an easy-to-program extensible groupware
architecture. Unlike single user plug-ins, CB groupware plug-ins
automatically share and populate a distributed data structure, using a
distributed Model View Controller pattern to simplify programming. Several
3rd party plugins illustrate what people can create in practice. | eng |
