02:39 AM 		net usage tomorrow
I'm just curious about bandwidth for tomorrow's Goldstone/Gold forum. Can someone who know how to do these things reply here after the event with a small pile of stats?
How many viewers?
How many GB streamed over the server?
Distribution of viewer IPs across the country/world?
etc.
thanks

I believe it's set so that if you are on-campus and go to to the streaming page it will open via IPTV. If you are off-campus the page will load a QuickTime streaming video.

03:58:46 PM 		why would that be a miscommunication?

04:11:09 PM 		no, that's not what was said above. The on-campus isn't streaming, it's IPTV'd. Off-campus *is* streamed. Semantics perhaps to you, bandwidth management for the techie side.

Upshot: everyone who wants to see it, on or off campus, ought to be able to.

Sorry for any confusion. That's not what I meant. It is being streamed live both for on-campus and off-campus.

On-campus and off-campus are viewed by different sources using the same URL (it's automatic / behind-the-scenes).

Sorry for any confusion!
Ian
