Help

Is there anyone out there who is doing work on

 i)   Networked VR
 ii)  VR tools for networking (not necessarily the same as above)

I have been asked to do some work for the Leicester University Open
Day, and I'd like to come up with something special. I will probably
be using WorldToolKit for Windows, although I haven't learned how to
use it yet.
