I have a general question about inquiries such as this:

  When do people ask if the participant can set up a personal node as an 
alternative to trying to find AG nodes at a site?  At some point, it may become 
necessary to work with an IT person to resolve installation or firewall issues 
anyway but this may be easier than finding a node on sites.  We've had less 
than 10% of our participants with nodes already and have found it easier to get 
them webcams, headsets / echo-cancelling audio, ...

Usually the first personal node sparks interest at the site to build a 
conference room class node.

What are your experiences?

   AG Lists:

   A plea for help.  I manage a UK based research group using Access Grid for
   monthly seminars.  We have invited two US speakers to a future seminar.  They
   are based at:

   University of Georgia, Athens GA

   College of William and Mary, nr Richmond VA

   My enquiries with those institutions themselves have drawn a blank.  So: does
   anyone know of AG nodes within a reasonable distance of each of those
   institutions which it may be possible for my participants to use.

   If so, I shall be grateful for your sending me contact details, and practical
   information (cost if applicable, etc).

   Many thanks, in advance,

   Simon.
