  1. Enjoyed this format very much, guys.  I hope you will do it again - perhaps once a week, or once a month if that’s too much.

    The only major down side was some audio quality being lost, as in Neville’s audio, but it was still easy to listen.

    With time, I imagine more people will be willing to take the mic and join your discussions.  Sorry I could not listen in live and comment, but I was on the road at that time.

    Hey, would you be willing to do one with one of my classes?  That would be fun ... at least for us.

  2. Gents,

    Very much enjoyed participating in the session… I’ll have a few other comments in my report next week, but I thought I’d mention one technical point. Bryan Person was unable to use Skype from his office, so I made a SkypeOut call to his office number (which, due to Skype’s new promotion, was free since we are both in NA) and then conferenced him via my Skype client in to my connection to the Skypecast.  He could then listen to the Skypecast, although he didn’t have the GUI so he couldn’t ask for the microphone.  We didn’t try it, but I’m willing to bet that had he spoken when I had the microphone, you probably would have heard him.  So just an interesting point about how non-Skype users could be brought into listening, albeit without full functionality.  (The non-Skype users could, of course, participate in the Gabbly chat, as Bryan did. The chat is, in fact, where we decided to try this connection.)

    Fun to do,
    Dan
