Greetings!

Just a quick info note on some tech updates at Fresco. The February calendar is online for V-Month* including the "Music for Lovers" night and Eugene Pao's Friday the 13th concert. We also had some luck last night on open mic night with the new video streaming setup, with a reasonable audio recording captured on our Gentoo box. Feel free to write in to the info account on our newsletter if you would like to take part in the prerelease alpha and beta trials before the expected public beta at the end of the month.

Please note that streaming video and audio during the test has some non-trivial technical requirements** for satisfying playback capability.

* (congratulations to the HK contingent running the Vagina Monologues and V-Month events!)

** A broadband connection with an XP class computer and software able to decode a streaming WMV file (such as Windows Media Player(tm) or VLC) and an aggregate network delay of less than 400ms to a server hosted in California.
