Grid node at eXCHANGE?

[Karen Green]

Hi all:

Intel would like to know if they can get a live remote of Dan Reed from an
NCSA Grid node to the conference floor of their IA-64 rollout in San
Fransico on either 10.11 or 10.12. What are the possibilities here? How
much work and how much equipment would it take? Please read the note below
and let me know what you think.

--If we can't run a grid node, what are other options? Dan says an ISDN
conference is one.

thanks much,

Karen Green
