Dave,

I'm just beginning (again) to try to use Groove. You can setup a shared
file "space" into which files can be dropped by any participating user and
broadcast to the other users. Unfortunately, as I understand it, Groove
keeps all these files in encrypted form on the Windows file system. There's
probably a way to 'export' them from the Groove space -- but I've not
figured out how. In other words, I believe a bit of work in Groove would be
required to expose the files in Windows file formats to make them accessible
to RU.

Still digging!

Scott
