Thanks. - How about the tranxmitting end?  I think I'd like to use a
webcam for the transmission. What sw would be best to use?

Also, I think we should get an IRC channel, so we also have that method
to communicate in real time.

Also, I think it would be good if you would email me directly (not
necessary to send it to the list) a phone # I can call yo at as we try
to get the vid xmission going - phone much faster throughput than irc
for solving problems.  Email me your #, if that;s ok.

Thanks.
