I know some of that went on, yes, and certainly if I'm more formally involved, I'll be querying the SMOFlist to see who ran things at the last 5 or so. My bet is that none of them *had* a formal CTO/Ops person full time.

My understanding was that Dragon *took its main feed* for the Hugos via Ustream, and the entire room got left standing; no? Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
