- reviewed two conferencing solutions - Cisco Webex and Uberconference
- had call with ICANN IT staff to discuss status on Summary of LACRALO translation email list issues ; collaborating on testing new plugins with Adobe Connect ; wiki translate plugins
looking at suitable Adobe Connect plugins
- The TTF tested the direct dialout plugin installed in the TTF AC room and whilst persons from North America and Europe (specifically Canada, France) were able to use the plugin to have the AC room dial them, I (living in Trinidad and Tobago with a +1-868-6XX-XXXX number) was unable to have the AC room dial to me, giving me an error has occurred. No amount of permutations of the phone number (using "+1-868-6.." , "18686...") seemed to work.
- However, in thinking about this feature, there are some disadvantages- this wouldn't work for persons requesting dialouts to a hotel or office with a PBX where a receptionist operator answers.- this plugin uses a different bridge from Adigo, how would recording (incorporating audio from the AC room, Adigo and this phone bridge) be done?- this wouldn't be helpful for At-Large calls with interpretation since the person being dialled can't join a Adigo channelHowever the TTF on its calls have identified two plugins for Adobe Connect that could be of use for At-Large and we would like for these plugins to be installed for our testing after the Singapore meeting1) Stage Lights - Stage Lights is a timer that helps keep presenters on time. http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/stage-lights.html2) SurveyMaker for Adobe Connect - Surveys and polls with eleven question types, built-in reporting, CSV downloads and much more. A demo is available
In response to the ALS Skype video recordings. a new page was created to provide AT LARGE Structures some guidance to do a VIDEO CONFERENCE well. The link is 10 Ways to Improve Your Video/Skype Conference Call. The major concerns was the poor sound quality, low resolution video, poor postioning of the video camera, shabby backgrounds for the video and more.
worked on the first prototype template for At-Large Working Group Pages developed : TEST - Template for At-Large WG pages
