This set of requirements is really very similar to the requirements
that I have for a MOO virtual environment to act as a conferencing
system for church related issues.  I was going to set the scene up
like a church summer bible camp, but a campus is a campus...

Please forward any interesting replies you get to this post that might
help me in setting this thing up.  I hate to re-invent the wheel,
because I usually re-invent the flat tire with it :-)

Thanks!
