This may have been covered before when I didn't pay attention, but is
there any thoughts going into issues like:

- Use IETF standard protocol between server and clients a SHOULD

  - For example, for chat, we should encourage XMPP for chat

  - This also allows implementations on any systems, not just
    Win/Mac/Linux

- Support of open standards like OpenOffice documents preferred over
  closed standards like PowerPoint?

Definitely!  A system to be able to identify whom is causing the most
noise on the channel is useful in identifying which participants to
mute.
