Okay, so here's my Request for Resources, figured I had better get it
in so that it can *possibly* happen for FUDCon F11 Boston. Please let
me know if you fellas have any questions.
Cheers,

Project Name: Fedora Streaming Server
Target Audience: Fedora Contributors interested in sharing audio/video in
real-time.
Expiration/Delivery Date (required): January 8, 2009
Description/Summary:
The sole purpose of this request is to implement and configure an icecast
streaming server for FUDCons and other Fedora events where the
presentations can be recorded (audio and/or video) and streamed to the
external audience at large.
Project plan (Detailed):
Deploy icecast and configure several mount points.
Allow audio source client to deploy audio streaming tool (darkice or
ices2) and configure it to connect to the icecast server.
Passwords are set up for each mount, or in general.
Goals:
The main goal is to make it easier for individuals who cannot make Fedora
Events (FUDCon and the like) to be able to participate at least by audio
or video streams. This of course, is a one way presentation, but gives a
good feel for what's going on in certain environments.
We anticipate the server to provide audio/video from older presentations
or for streaming podcasts from Fedora contributors ongoing.
Other Notes:
I currently host and maintain an icecast server on
http://stream.utos.org
and it rarely needs any maintenance. Although, I plan to work to set up
more agile authorization and a way to modify the config from the web by
people in the group. This will allow them to update the mounts (streams)
available and set stream passwords on the fly.
