Wouldn't be cool a forum meeting? Somewhere in the world? I know.. it is not easy at all to organize well a so worldwide event and not everyone has time and money to spend. But why not just think about it?
I thought that firstly a continental meeting is easier to organize. I'm speaking about an european meeting because I live here but this could be good for other continents too! IMHO should be a place with some symbolic mean for us..  I thought a place like the deep space network antennas in madrid. When? perhaps this spring or summer...Other ideas? Criticisms? I know that problems are big and not everyone feel the need of a meeting but it would be great shake your hands guys! I don't write so much here but I check almost everyday this incredible forum!  Ale. |

We should have simultaneous meetings in the U.S. and Europe, and set up a high definition (1920x1080) video link between the two. That way nearly everyone can attend without crossing any oceans.

QUOTE (um3k @ Dec 27 2005, 05:21 PM) We should have simultaneous meetings in the U.S. and Europe, and set up a high definition (1920x1080) video link between the two. That way nearly everyone can attend without crossing any oceans.  It would be very nice, but is barely possible using highly expensive sat links as used by pro-broadcasters. A webcast MIGHT be plausable, but what might make some real sense would perhaps be just an audio webcast, and people presentations available to download before the event. (would also cost a lot less as well) Let's concentrate on when, where, how, who - before figuring out the fancy extras. The 'last resort' imho would be to video all the presentations, with an HDTV Camera if possible, and distribute a WMV-HD DVD. Doug |
