I wanted to send a note to a larger audience about a few more Netcasts that have been scheduled. This is not so much a new service, but more of a test-in-progress for what is possible. Believing our R&E community has a wealth of content that may be of benefit to others in/beyond our community, Netcasting aims to reach remote/wider audiences as well as promote the use of multicast transport. The current (consented) public events that are on the schedule are specific in topic but larger lectures/media events could be handled similarly. In the long run, should this prove worthwhile, we would look for local resources to handle coordination/AV/codec needs and we would handle the transport as well as aim to provide a collective interface for viewing such events. A schedule of sessions and further info can be found at Networkmaine-IPTV <http://www.networkmaine.net/iptv/> (multicast connectivity required). Should you have interest in viewing or enabling such an event please contact us <http://www.networkmaine.net/contact/> .
