Re: Useable video from meetings - was suggestion

Two of the rooms will be multicast, in two formats h.261 and mpeg-1. Those
sessions will be recorded and can then be down-mixed to various formats
for archiving...

They should be available slighlty thereafter in a format similar to what
we're currently doing for the nanog meetings...

Doing even a small number of sessions all day for four days is a major
logistical effort that currently involves around 20 volunteers including
at current count something like 7-9 students...

Hi,

It sure would be nice for the IETF to offer webcasting of the meetings.  The
objective of 'ease of access to information' would be greatly serve if the
protocol and software package debate can be put aside...  If commercial
conferences like Comdex can be provided by CNET (See
http://www.key3media.com/comdex/fall2000/), the ISOC can webcast INET
conference (See notice below), and ICANN meetings are webcast and archives
available overnight (see below), why is the bar to IETF participation still
having to deploy MBONE or have access to it?

..just a simple question...  If it is a money issue, perhaps student
volunteers from the local university or companies can donate their services.

The IETF agenda is global.  The IETF operating principle is open access.
Any tool that can lower the barriar to participation would make sense...

Just having useable archive webcast would be an improvement.  Technology for
real-time humming and vote counting can come later!!!  (I am sure better
technology on vote counting will be very popular in the next year...)

Subject: Announce: Archive of 1st ISTF face-to-face Informal Meeting is now
available.

Dear ISTFers:

I am pleased to announce that Video / Audio / Text Archive of ISTF
Meeting in Yokohama is now available at

      http://inet.sfc.wide.ad.jp/

On behalf of 8 volunteer webcast team members, I would like to thank
for all the encouragement and compliments given to the webcast team.

We have tried to make this webcast as accessible as possible --
video/audio works with old players, bandwidth can be as low as 12kbps,
and scribe system was also available for people with language/hearing
barriers.
I apologize for people who could not watch the live webcast even with
those efforts. I will work more for next time.

And I would like to thank Ms. Abigail Cooke who volunteered for the
scribe.
My small scribing system could not work without you.

I would like to thank all of you again for letting us work with you,
and, please enjoy!

Sincerely,

Keiichi "kero" KAWAI
