Australia ........: ??You can tune in with any player than can play ogg/vorbis streams that come in via HTTP.
This includes:
There are also ogg-plugins available for other players. Please feel free to extend the list with more players you find working and with URLs to those listed.
The URLs of the streams are:
Some players want playlist URLs instead of the direct stream URLs, so if the above URLs don't work with your player although it claims to support Ogg/Vorbis, you can try one of these:
The conference streams will most likely _not_ be availabe outside of the scheduled session hours. For testing players while the conference streams are down there is a test loop available under the following URLs (depending on the client):
All listeners are invited to log into the Tcl'ers Chat for coordination and for asking questions to the speakers at the conference. There will be people in the conference room who are logged into the chat and can proxy between remote listeners and the speaker.
sheila, 10 Oct 2004: Will audio files be archived?
rmax: Yes, we will archive them at several places for redundancy and plan to make them available after the conference. So please don't open a second stream to run your own archive, as the number of slots for listeners on the servers is limited.
