     I have identified several groupware products that would be of great
use where I work, but am not in a strong position to get management to
consider such an investment.  If anyone has any experiences - positive or
negitive on trying to introduce groupware into an organization from
a position outside of normal management structures, I whould greatly
appreciate hearing about them.
      Thanks,

I'm afraid I can't give you any advice on how to sell the idea
to your management but I sure would like to hear what products
and applications you are thinking about.

I'm interested in people with experiences on trying to introduce groupware
into an organization and overall users of such software(see COORDINATOR,...).

This is because I'm working on a project, software as support for collaborative
work (typically in offices).
