R2 with the support of ISOCNZ and CityLink, are attempting to webcast the PICISOC Meeting being held this week in Vanuatu. The webcast material is (hopefully) being relayed by videoconference tool to Wellington NZ, where the webcast encoding will take place.

Details of the Conference can be found at http://www.picisoc.org - Basically it is a 5 day conference from Monday to Friday.

The webcast is set to automatically startup on connection from Vanuatu and will run with limited supervision and monitoring from NZ.

We are endeavouring to record the sessions  remotely and will try to make them available as the week progresses. Please watch this page for details as they unfold.

Monday 23 Agust
Conference starts - we get video but no audio. After a long wait and much fiddling with the toys, we figure out that the problem is in the firewall (NAT) at the Vanuatu end. Local hands (thats Andy) are off to get things changed. Heres hoping.......
