We need a video teleconferencing capability.
Last year's conference was planned by a central committee in the Washington, DC area. This year we are more dispursed with conference host Mike Sherman in Florida and conference chair Arnold Trebach in Washington, DC. We desperately need a video teleconferencing capability for this conference as well as for other remote meetings which we conduct from time-to-time.
Ginger has done a great job as usual in getting us a conference capability in AIM. But this is a cumbersome "type-in" conference capbility. I know that AIM has voice capability, and may have video teleconferencing. I believe Yahoo has video teleconferencing.
Trish and Ginger. This may be a good project for you two gals. Or for anyone else with expertise to volunteer to head up this important task. We need a volunteer project manager to look into this and to find a way for us to do it. The PM would then give us guide-lines on what type of camera to get and how to install it, plus guidance on installation of the conferencing software.
To the new project manager, and you know who you are, we have nothing to offer you but blood, sweat and tears. But do guarantee you you will receive a Dewey Button at the conference. If there is a benefactor(s) out there could you pitch in a few hundred dollars to help the PM procure hardware and software for evaluation and testing.
