Re: no multicast of IETF plenaries

Basically we were unable to use the same rooms for the plenary the we use 
for the regular sessions. For us it's just to much to move the ch1 
equipment in two hours. It is possible the the equipment I,m using will be 
able to source mpeg-1 but not the other sources from the plenary . if it 
works I'll update the webpage at least two hours before the plenary.

NEWS:

      07-15-2003 - We're not going to broadcast the two plenary
     sessions in the evening wednesday and thursday. They are in
     different rooms for our equipment, and moving it is too hard.
     Currently we plan on recording the two plenaries and they should
     be accessible later.

I'm sorry to learn this.  The multicast access is actually turning out
to be quite useful for me this time around, and the plenaries are
important parts of the meeting.  I hate to miss them.  Watching the
recorded meetings isn't the same because there's no way to provide
real-time feedback.  

(fwiw, in my experience Jabber isn't a very good mechanism for keeping
track of what's going on, but it has worked quite well for making the
occasional remotely-originated comment.)

despite the inability to multicast the plenaries, I'm very appreciative
to the multicast team for allowing me to participate in some of the WG
meetings from Tennessee.
