The use of groupware, or collaborative work-supporting technologies, has become wide spread, but many existing groupware systems are too difficult to integrate with domain-specific software applications, only work for specific user interface hardware, or provide inappropriate, thick-client architectural solutions. This paper describes a set of server-side software components that has been developed providing a variety of thin-client groupware solutions. These components provide HTML and WML-based thin-client user interfaces and can be readily "plugged into" the server-side architectures of domain specific applications.
