Agora on CTools?

The Centre for e-Science in Lancaster University (UK) has just released the beta version of Agora, an online meeting tool integrated with Sakai. The features of Agora include:

• Multipoint video and audio
• Collaborative whiteboard
• Shared desktop
• Videocasting
• Text chat
• Recording of sessions

It is a server-client application, with the client currently available for Windows XP or 2000 (Versions for Linux, Windows Vista, and Mac are in the works, but it will take a while.)

It probably won't take long before we see Agora added to CTools.
