[governance] LAC Pre IGF Remote

Tue Aug 3 13:07:55 EDT 2010

Yes, I know how important feedback on live performance is! Actually, I meant
to say in my previous e-mail that I was experiencing difficulties in seeing
video and hearing audio later in Quito time, after the meeting was well
under way. 

Right now  1 p.m. Eastern (New York) US time -  I have no live media being
delivered on the Ustream window, but I can look at the archived version of
the morning. What I see is a still frame that is showing PowerPoint slides 
the first one, titled Actividades de LACNIC, was on the screen for an
extended period before the video started to move on to additional slides.
The slides are accompanied by scratchy audio that is occasionally breaking
up to the point where you miss a few words. This is the recording named
³igf-lac 08/03/10 09:54AM.²

Again, thank you SO much for your efforts!
