sascha shared this to the imc finance list from the urbana's discussions:

"I don't have a particular problem here.  HOWEVER, I would love for there
to be better streaming support in the network.  Here in Urbana, for
instance, we have no streaming media, even though we now have active video
and radio groups producing things that would find bigger audiences if
streamed.  Video, in particular, can't really be uploaded to groogroo
because downloads jam the bandwidth.  So -- could we get in on some
streaming, or maybe get a streaming server here via the global, with the
intent of serving the midwest?"

hi everyone,

i agree that this is a need.  i know there is a donor who would like 
to give some funds to about 5 different imcs, primarily outside the 
us.  i'm wondering if there's a way of assessing which sites would be 
good to offer this donation to.  any ideas?

peace,
sheri
