meeting over the AG. They are holding the meeting in a large
auditorium on campus which has no appropriate equipment in it. <br>

My name is Josh Stillerman. We have several AG capable systems at the
<br>
MIT-PSFC. We do not have a room set up for AG, and we do not have an
AG <br>
node operator. These are people's desktop machines. In addition the <br>
multicast nature of the AG traffic does really really terrible things
to <br>
our network in all but the smallest of meetings. We have discussed <br>
with Argonne implementation of a local bridge, so the traffic on our
lan <br>
would be unicast, but no progress on this has been made. At this time <br>
we can only participate in meetings with a small number of streams, and
<br>
we don't have a space for a large (more than one or two person) <br>
audience. If you want to speak with one to two people over AG here at <br>
MIT for a short meeting, we may be able to accommodate you.<br>
<br>
Sorry,<br>
