Oh, I don't know.... while I'm not a big I2 guru, our Music Department is in its second year teaching hand drumming between here and the southeast coast via I2. . . there's a tiny lag, but the musicians worked it out... On Saturday, September 27, 2003, at 09:59 PM, Denise N. Rall wrote:
Dear Air-er's -
I recall a lot of hype around internet2. But the latest review I saw of its implementation (in a recent Chronicle of Higher Ed, don't have the exact date) looked very under-whelming.
It was a new bandwidth and was supposed to offer broad spectrum high speed connectivity, especially for 'internet video' - a friend of mine was worked at Southern Cross Uni on the video implmentation for distance music teachers/pupils in Australia, another team (I believe at U-Kentucky) has worked on a similar project and not had much joy on the inter2 network. Despite the vaunted specs, it is too slow for interactive music instruction via 'webcam'.
Ok, doesn't grid sound like inter2 all over again? Anyone out there working on project implementation with an inter2 link that is going well?? and I have continually heard that IPv6 is coming. Has it arrived in the US or anywhere else for that matter?
Having a skeptical moment, Denise
