Requirements for using BSCW are minimal:
o To register as a user of a BSCW server, you must have a personal e-mail address.
o To access shared workspaces and to download documents to your local computer, you need a modern Web browser with JavaScript and cookies activated. You can choose from, e.g., the current versions of Google’s Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Opera and Apple’s Safari (you find the minimum requirements for browser versions in 2.5 Configuring your Web browser).
o The standard way to upload documents to a BSCW workspace is to use the built-in file upload function of current Web browsers. In case of problems you may have to use one of BSCW’s upload helpers (see 13.5 BSCW upload helpers).
