DO we have a session - The context of where the meeting is, who is there.

Three Pieces Here:

1. What am I working on
2. What am I drawing
3. "Namespace Server"

Problem: How do I define "validity" of the annotation when I see it

Problem: Selecting - how to choose what you're drawing on or related to
