Version 1.1 Improvements 

• Remoting is used in place of the direct socket calls.
• InkBoard Server now runs as a Windows Services as oppose to console application.

• Central server collects all strokes from peers for easy storage and retrieval.
• InkBoard server supports multiple groups of peers simultaneously.
• Time-stamped strokes for sequential replay of the ink when opened from a server or a local file.
• Zoom, pan, and move time marker on Time Line for to-the-second display of the drawing.
