So far the video team has no cameras of it's own (other than those belonging to individual team members). The Twinpacts can do either ntsc or pal, it's just a dip switch setting. So, I guess my suggestion is, wherever the conference is held, cameras are borrowed or rented locally to match the local standard. In any case, it seems to me that a debconf in the US is highly unlikely to gain traction. -Eric Rz. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
