Using Cloned PC Images for Deployment
Informal roundtable discussion of what you're doing, what you'd like
to know more about, problems that you've run into, etc. We expect the
bulk of the discussion is going to concern Ghost (console, AutoInstall,
"Move the User," GhostWalker) and Sysprep, Universal Imaging
Utility.

Unicode
Unicode provides a unique number for every character, no matter what
the platform, no matter what the program, no matter what the language.
The new release of Voyager, scheduled for December 2005, is primarily
intended to complete the conversion to Unicode. This session will answer
the questions: What is Unicode? How will Unicode impact our data in
Voyager? What do I need to know about Unicode on a desktop computer
(Voyager client installation, Oracle and ODBC driver installation, web
browsers, font issues)?

Shibboleth
Shibboleth is being explored as a possible solution for Cornell. It
is a way to secure online services and to allow for access to restricted
digital content. It leverages campus identity and access management
infrastructures to authenticate individuals and then sends information
about them to the resource site, enabling the resource provider to make
an informed authorization decision.

Web Accessibility
[Changed to this topic, 2/2/0/06]
Presented by George Kozak and Paul Houle.
An accessible Web is essential for equal opportunities for people with
disabilities. It also provides benefits to others, such as older persons
with changing abilities. This talk will bring in information from a
recent CIT seminar on the topic and from experts in the library to show
how web sites can be made more accessible.
