I'm not totally dating myself because this movie was a bit before my time. However, 'The Day the Earth Stood still' immediately popped in my mind as I feel like a visitor from the planet Groove touching down in the SharePoint community.

I mean you no harm :)

But I do have a question (or two) as I ramp up on SharePoint knowledge: What does the SharePoint community think of Groove?

a) Groove is the perfect solution for SharePoint offline
b) SharePoint is the perfect solution for Groove online
c) A means to hire Ray Ozzie
d) SharePoint Uber Alles
e) Interesting, but I'm not sure how it fits
f) Other (please post in the comments section)

The reason I'm asking is I see a natural symmetry between SharePoint and Groove (so much so that we're betting our company on it), and I believe Microsoft does too since they grouped SharePoint, Groove and Project together. But I'm approaching it as the new kid on the block excited to be here. What about you guys who have been around the block a few times?

SharePoint has been immensely successful and seems to be gaining momentum. Does Groove have to prove anything to you? Is it obvious how to connect the two? Package them for your clients?

I hope I get lots of comments, because the silence would be deafening.
