The first international workshop on Object Oriented Groupware Platforms (OOGP'97) was held September 7, 1997, as a full day workshop at the ECSCW'97 conference in Lancaster, UK. During this day, 25 participants from Europe, the US and Australia - which were invited to the workshop based on position papers -- gathered to discuss the question: "
What should an Object Oriented Groupware Platform look like and how do we get there from current state of the art?
". The full workshop proceedings [1], a list of participants and an index of research groups involved in research into object oriented groupware platforms are available on the workshop websitehttp:/Iwww.trc.nl/eventslecscw97oogp/ welcome.htm.
In this position paper, we motivate why the dynamic personal social network perspective is relevant for research and design of CSCW systems. Moreover, we identify opportunities for improvement of measuring the dynamics in personal social networks and we propose a classification of dynamic personal social network applications.
