[DM-MUG] Meetings and attendance...

[Victoria L. Herring]

We'll have to check with Holly ref. programs that are upcoming but 
MAYBE what we could do is a program on the idea of audio and video 
iChats, Skypes, etc. and include the NiceCast test during that 
program to see how it works???  We could probably try an iChat for 
whomever, then shut it off and try a Skype and hten shut it off and 
try something else [Adium and others?] and then NiceCast = if we do 
about a 5 min or so test of each that might be fun to do.

But those who can't make the meeting would have to commit [at least 
some of them] to (1) being virtually present and (2) working with us 
as we test the various methods.  iChat and Skype are free.  Not sure 
of all the others.

Thanks for the idea!!!
