Looks like I missed a good one. - Andrew Lang

Re SL, bandwidth can be a significant issue at conferences and voice seems to be one of the first services to fail. Having said that, it appears that my voice held up even though the indicator wasn't showing it. On the other hand, I was asked to use text chat when showing people round so they could listen to the scio2010 ustream! Overall though, I would probably have used canned video given the time available. - Peter Miller

Peter - I had the speakers up the whole time and could not hear anybody while I was on the network - dot or no dot - except for a 1-2 min period about 45 min before the session. Others were reporting problems with voice. At least the ustream was working. - Jean-Claude Bradley

JC - I had the ustream feeds (Rooms D & E) open all weekend - only about 1.5 hours of the event was streamed, unfortunately. Waiting for the uploads later this week. - Graham Steel

I could never get the ustream to work - "Off Air". Posts on twitter suggested that they kept "running out of tape." - Andrew Lang

Graham - I heard there were problems with the ustream but didn't realize how bad. Hopefully the vids will be posted soon. It would be nice to have an option with the streaming site to just make every session available immediately after it is done. - Jean-Claude Bradley

I'm curious, have you asked anyone about archiving your ONS data at Drexel? Does your department have a server, the computer center, the library? - Elizabeth Brown

Elizabeth - yes I have contacted our library but the time isn't right for them. We'll probably end up using our own server but I think the participation of librarians would add a lot of value to the archiving project. - Jean-Claude Bradley

Thanks - I think it will take some time for libraries to deal with supporting data. Many traditional archivists are not familar with scientific data and lab practice. They're trained to deal with paper and more "traditional" documents. - Elizabeth Brown

Elizabeth - the good news is I only need one or two librarians to participate for it to work :) - Jean-Claude Bradley
