Re: Stage #3 For the past two weeks or so, I have been trying to connect to both  reflectors, but I have found that one of both is always or almost always  down. IMO, this has discouraged people from connecting. However, there is truth in there not being, at least, a known base of  librarians equipped to do 'full' cu-seeme. I am at a loss as to how to  find those that are...  How about getting Connectix to sponsor the project and supply it with,  say, 10 QuickCams?

I think this is a great concept which time will  come. My problem is  I can't quite convince my Director to  spend the $ to get me up and running alone.
