Abstract

FOSDEM rocks and the Debian Dev room has a lot of interesting talks, but one cannot possible attend all of them. But there is the videoteam which tries to provided good quality coverage, and possibly a live stream! Again we will be using a multiple camera setup and Ben Hutchings' DVSwitch software.

This page is basic "scratch space" for the organisation of this, as we won't have anywhere near the amount of gear or people we had at DebConf.

FosdemVideo2008 has useful historic info.

Hardware

Network

Assuming that our room will be the same as last year (AW125), this means that there /probably/ will not be any FOSDEM network equipment in the Debian room. This is not for sure yet, it might also be that FOSDEM will get part of the uplink bandwidth from the plug in the Debian devroom...

According to the FOSDEM website, the room will be AW1.121, which appears to have 5 more seats than the AW1.125

Don't worry, there is of course a solution for both cases:

No FOSDEM equipment is present: you can plug straight into the uplink port that is provided by the ULB in your room. It might be BNC, but Gerry will have hubs available that do BNC->RJ45, so no worries there.

   Settings (fixed):
     address 164.15.3.4
     netmask 255.255.255.0
     gateway 164.15.3.254

As a DNS server, use whichever you like, but make sure it answers to requests from your source IP.

FOSDEM equipment is present: I will make sure there is a port available for your wired uplink. Configuration will be provided by DHCP.
