ABSTRACT
This is a report of work-in-progress on a multi-user sketching tool. The intent behind the project is to produce a simple tool for use in multi-user design and brainstorming sessions. The tool, xsketch, is intended to function across existing internetwork facilities and run on a variety of platforms. This paper covers the requirements and design goals for the tool. Details of a prototype implementation are given along with a list of known problems, shortcomings, and possible extensions.
