Has anyone thought about recording/streaming the sessions from NZNOG this year? Could also be good for whoever's looking after that to contact Doug Kay at IT Conversations ( http://www.itconversations.com/ ) for syndication...

Re: [Nznog-org] Registrations Closed?
by Richard Nelson 01 Feb '05

01 Feb '05

We have now reached the legal limit on the number of people in the room for Thursday. This means that registrations are _really_ closed. There will be no registrations on the day unless we have cancellations or no-shows. We can still take extra people for dinner. Richard Nelson WAND Network Research Group.

Re: Multicast in NZ FAQ (Lennon - Orcon) I had a really interesting guy call me up on the helpdesk about a year ago and he spent like an hour on the phone explaining the benefits of mulitcasting. He was trying to convince all the schools to do it in case there was an outbreak of SARS meaning all the schools would be shut and that it would be a good way to push out assignments to students...intersting stuff. Wouldn't viruses be spread quicker via multicast? My 2c Trakman.

bandwidth in AKL
by Richard Naylor 31 Jan '05

31 Jan '05

Hi There, I have a possible major webcast in AKL at the Showgrounds in mid March. I'm going to need 2 carriers with around 2.5-3 mbps each. I just need to get back to APE, so traffic upstream isn't too great. Current plans are to use Wired Country and IP Star via ICONZ. Any one (incl Telecom and TCL) with something better and do-able before mid March, please contact me off list. Its 3 days live and allowing for set up etc, is a total of maybe 5 days. Thanks - Rich
