[AG-TECH] Multicasting

[Julia Mullen]

Hi Jeff,

With respect to the encryption item - there are ways of encrypting meetings.

I have been holding encrypted meetings for months now.  The technique we use -
sending a passphrase and encrypting both audio and video, is a bit
cumbersome, but rises out of the mixed (inSORS and AG) nature of our
commiittee sites.

Let me know if you would like a quick explanation of encryption, as I
have a document that I produced for the folks involved in our monthly
meetings.

Thanks -

  Julie
