>My name is Mike Piasecki (Assoc Prof. at Drexel University) and I am involved with the CUAHSI and CLEANER (PI B. Minsker) environmental observatory system initiatives. As part of these efforts but also having several projects associated to these efforts we (the multiPI groups) are in need of a robust and reliable means of audio and video meeting environment.

>I volunteered to take the lead on this and figure how we can get all Pis on the AccessGrid table, i.e. we are looking for a multiple one-to-one or one-to-many setup of the ToolKit. We have a mixed environment of XP and MAC OS users. We are not very technically savvy when it comes to dealing with AccessGrid in general and Python in particular, hence can you help?

>I downloaded the required software pieces from the Accessgrid.org site in the order they were announced and pretty much just followed the default settings in the setup programs. The installation process places a Venue Client icon on the desktop and everything seems ready to start. Clicking of the icon though does not launch the script, actually none of the scripts in the AGTk-3 directory can be launched using pythonw (C:\Program Files\python23). I can launch python (command line) and also find a pythonwin.exe. program in the \Lib\site-packages\pythonwin directory but none of them seem to help in getting the scripts running. Pythonw of course doesn't give any traceback information which leaves an uninformed user a little in the dark.
