hi,
I currently use Ipeer and remember having trouble setting it up. Any way,
the reason I am writing is to let you know that I recently contacted Jim
Sibley about an Ipeer matter and he told me to look at WebPA
http://webpaproject.lboro.ac.uk/
I am not using it this semester but will probably make the switch in Spring
2010.
Cheers!
Mary Gourley
