Cyphre suggested there will be some nice announcements, but professionally 
refused to give me any hints. So I asked Carl and he told me they 
will announce some new developments, but could not say more few weeks 
ago ...

I'm with Chris, I'm thinking it is a net connection, 'cause Reichart 
would definitely be here.

anyone got Gab's cellphone number?

.... so - that is only news we know, unless someone knows more ..... 
Graham, yesterday I got impression (do not remember what your's message 
was it based upon :-), that you may actually know more :-)

if someone is onDeveloper's IOS - some ppl put their cell-phones 
in there ...

I've had the opportunity to use BEER over the last week.

I can say no more.

you can't even say whether you like it or not?  ;-)

ie. nothing else for me to say

hmm, Gabriele is not on IOS contacts, so ...

I guess it needs a bit more fermenting

Brock - who would not like the BEER, right? :-) I like lot of beers 
:-) .... and whisky too :-)

I knew that was coming. :-)

Beer is protocol based upon Beep, no? I wonder if it can somehow 
compare to Uniserve, or both are different kind of products?

but BEER is not RT's announcement, no? In fact - it may be regarded 
a competition to LSN imo ....

Gabriele is talking about LNS  isn't he?

yes, he has some presentation on it ...

where's the Italian phonebook ?  There can't be that many Gabriele's 
can there?

:-)

that is worse than I thought, really. WebSite suggested everything 
will be professionally prepared, maybe it is, but is it really a 
problem to at least have one persone here on notebook and provide 
us with some hints of what is Carl talking about?

Besides that - don't expect off-line video to come anytime soon - 
Gabriele was talking about weeks, as he needs to grab it, polish 
it etc.

Unfortunately it could simply be that Gabriele had way too much to 
do in organizing the event and working on last minute changes to 
LNS for his presentation.

I recall last year it was Jaime and Gabriele that setup all the video 
equipment and the feed... maybe just not enough time.

I agree it would be nice if someone gave small updates on AltME - 
I really have to assume there is an Internet connectivity problem.

heh, now I remembered something - some 5 years ago, when I was put 
in the charge for e-business team, we met with one partner from Germany 
and I asked them, if CZ, as a post-communistic country, has really 
weak internet connectivity and internet presence, especially in regards 
to companies. Two guys looked one at each other, started laughing 
and told us "haha, you've never been in Italy, right?" :-) Nothing 
against Italy, really, it just came to my mind right now :-)

It seems fair that the priority is for the people at the conferernce.

If someone has volunteered to send instant status reports, that'd 
be nice.
If the haven't, we can wait for the official press releases.

'paying' customers' gets more attention :)

Sunanda - the problem is, like with every post amiga related company, 
that those announcements simply don't come usually :-)

What would Charles Dickens say ..?

well, today situation is a bit different than one year ago, as we 
have less formal Carl's blog - so maybe Carl will blog a bit about 
his presentation, not bothering to prepare some kind of official 
press release kind of posts ...

Now that would be a problem, Petr :-)

Perhaps those of us who didn't go should have paid for one of us 
to go as reporter.

Graham - who is Charles Dickens?

(... a joke :-)

author of "Great Expectations"

Please sir.... can I haf s'more

... as for me, I can wait .... I am just saying that it would be 
fine to have someone here, if not, neve mind, I expect someone will 
join at least tomorrow ...

hahahh...took me sometime to figure that out

Jaime didn't take one of his wireless boxes with him?

I expect Reichart will show up with blazing fast fingers and a laptop 
at some point

Is GPRS too old these days?

it is rather old, but still working. I have it with my notebook - 
it is some 54kbit, the trouble is, it does not support compression 
as general modem units, so 100KB html site is still 100KB

Reichart is on QTask..but dun think I see him here.

[mad rush to QTask]

today there is new standard here - EDGE - it can be nearly 150kbit, 
should be enough even for SkyPe ..... it runs on top of GPRS modulation 
or so, but device and mobile points have to support that, so only 
big towns here currently ...

from Reichart..

=
They are working on it.  For some reason I can't get on AltME
==

in reply..to my question on whether there is a 'live' broadcast

and Reichart can't get onto AltME ?  Perhaps he's forgotten his password?

R: 		Also, we have not started yet, but almost there.
They are blocking AltME in some way, but not HTM.

ahh.. the school's squid server
