I doubt the RIRs are that well off, and would probably have to put
this into their respective activity plans for approval by their
members.  What would be far easier is if they donated knowledge/staff
time and perhaps lent some kit.

At the moment, I am listening to the AfriNIC meeting via
http://streaming.afrinic.net:8000/afstars.mp3  it's "costing" me ~32k,
and is flawless.  I can join in the chat, as I know what's being
discussed (because of the audio).

After 3 years, the IGF should be able to do this as well.
