This is the report from a technology workshop held under the direction of the Joint Committee of the Higher Education and Entertainment Communities.  The workshop, held April 19-20, 2007, was designed to begin a dialogue with commercial vendors about how to modify current or develop new technologies that better meet the needs of colleges and universities in reducing illegal P2P file sharing.  Currently the "Next Steps" include several follow-up activities will be carried out, including evaluating current technologies that some institutions are using to combat illegal file sharing.
