Groupboard Licensing Details
Introduction
Groupboard allows you to put multi-user java tools, such as whiteboard,
chat, message boards and games, onto your web pages simply by pasting
in a few lines of HTML code. It works on any browser which has Java
JDK1.0 (practically any browser released since about 1995) without
the user having to install any plugins.
