June 1998 NANOG Meeting

The spring '98 NANOG meeting will be hosted by Merit June 7-9 at the Hyatt Regency Dearborn, near Detroit. Hope to see you there!

The meeting will begin with tutorials and demos on Sunday evening, June 7. Presentations begin at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, June 8 (with coffee hour at 8:30 a.m.) and continue until 4:00 p.m. Tuesday, June 9. Be sure to book your return flight for late afternoon or early evening Tuesday, so you can attend all of Tuesday's sessions!

NANOG 13 Cast on the 'Net

For those who can't attend this NANOG meeting in person, NANOG 13 will be cast over the Internet in both Real Audio/Real Video format and via the MBONE.

To provide a better audio and video signal for both of these casting techniques, we are trying out a document camera, video switcher, and have hired a camera crew to work the event.
