Any VO community member may apply to start a new electronic collaboration group (e.g. a new "community of interest", or a "workshop planning" website).  A group is requested by answering a few questions needed to initialize your group's services (e.g. the desired security/access policies for the group).  A template for the application form is provided as a Microsoft Word attachment below.

To start a group, fill out the attached application below. Click on the button and select Contact Support. Mark the subject field as "Group request" and paste your completed application into the message body before you send.
