Hi,

If anyone is interested, I can do a session on live video streaming
during the network meeting.  I have built a graphical interface
application that makes it relatively easy compared to setting up the
stream using the (scary) command line.

What you end up with is a computer capable of live video streaming in
Ogg Theora format, which can be opened using VLC.  Quality is very
good.  The live stream is fairly low-bandwidth so it works on a wireless
connection.  The stream is sent from wherever you are to the
radio.indymedia.org server which has good capabilities to rebroadcast
the stream to the rest of the world.

If anyone is interested in this stuff, please say let me know.  If you
want to bring a laptop (needs to run Linux) then bring it along and we
can set it up during the session.

In theory this makes it possible to build streaming mobile laptop units
that we can use to cover events in realtime, but we will need people to
get involved and figure out the mechanics of this before it'll be a
useful capability.

Yossarian

"It is not enough to decrease the rate of destruction... we must in-
crease the rate of creation." -- Tom Hayden, Seattle WTO, 1999

SUMMARY:
The "imc-alternatives" working group invites you to join us in the
formation of a global "Alternatives IMC!" The "Alternatives IMC" will be
a
"next generation" Indymedia website that will both gather content about
all
the great things people are doing to create a better world [pioneering
alternative social structures, economics, education, energy, etc.] and
to
provide a place for people organizing these projects working on these
projects to connect with each other to do practical, world-changing
work.  We invite you to check out information at
'"https://docs.indymedia.org/view/Global/IndymediaAlternatives".

BODY:
You are INVITED to participate in the Alternatives Indymedia!!

Activists striving for fundamental change have achieved marked success
in
recent years, combining massive street demonstrations against War,
poverty
and unaccountable global institutions with long-term community
organizing
and innovative internet tools to create public discussion around the
many
problems facing our world. Independent media sources like Indymedia, and
to
some extent the mainstream media, have covered this rising tide of
discontent, providing substantial analysis of most everything that's
"wrong" with the current governmental, social and economic systems.

At the same time, though with much less fanfare, many people and
organizations are working to develop systems that are "right." These are
focused on working solutions, such as participatory decision-making
processes, equitable economies, technologies of cooperation, and many
more.
They nurture social structures and a more ecologically sustainable way
of
life. If encouraged , valued and supported, these tangible and concrete
experiments could represent a positive shift toward "a new way of
being";
the next bold step in the movement to create a better world. But the
word
needs to get out about them. Right now we have an imbalance in coverage
of
the problems and the critique and not enough dissemination of empowering
information about what is working in the world and how people can get
involved with these kinds of "experiments".

The Alternatives Indymedia (a working title) is a project with multiple
goals:

1) To open a vibrant, inspiring, and multilingual Indymedia site through
which users will both share information about current efforts toward
fundamental change and work collaboratively on projects to make change
happen in their communities.

2) To develop the Alternatives Indymedia site to be a "next-generation"
IMC
site. This will include offering both traditional IMC features (open
publishing newswire, central feature column) as well as collaborative
editing (aka open editing) and wiki work-pages, integrated forums and
project-oriented mailing lists, blogs, RSS feeds, and other advances
that
will inspire active participation in the site.  To accomplish this, we
want
to work with visionary techies and innovative coders (maybe YOU??) to
pioneer new versions of code (perhaps using Drupal, perhaps using
Plone),
that will help transform Indymedia sites from relics of a bygone era
when
open publishing itself was considered revolutionary -- way back in 2000!
--
into elegant, powerful, INSPIRING sites that empower a new generation of
activists to work together to make change.

We intend this site to become an indispensable resource for those
interested in the basic fundamentals of fundamental change - the
who/what/where/when/why of what people are doing to better the world --
as
well as a living laboratory for those who want to make change happen
NOW.

The Alternatives IMC Working Group invites you to join us in realizing
this
vision. We are looking for (1) techies who are interested in developing
the
next generation of IMC sites, (2) organizers who share our desire to
harness the power of Indymedia to advance social change, and (3) media
makers who love covering the alternatives, experiments and solutions
that
are happening across the globe!

Please join our working
<http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/imc-alternatives>email list
at
imc-alternatives at indymedia.org (join through
"http://lists.indymedia.org"). You may also contact Jay <jay at
fundamentalchange.net> and/or Sheri <sheri at indymedia.org> for more
information.  We look forward to working together to create a shift in
thinking, perception and individual and collective political will.

"No basta con reducir la tasa de destrucci?n... 
debemos aumentar la tasa de creaci?n." -- Tom Hayden (Seattle OMC 1999)

SUMARIO: El grupo de trabajo "alternativas-imc" 
os invita a uniros en la formaci?n de un imc 
global "Alternatives IMC!". El "Alternatives IMC" 
ser? una p?gina web de Indymedia de "nueva 
generaci?n" que reunir? tanto contenidos de todas 
las cosas que la gente est? llevando a cabo para 
crear un mundo mejor [ avanzando en estructuras 
sociales alternativas as? como alternativas en 
econom?a, educaci?n, energ?a, etc.] y 
proporcionar? tambi?n un lugar en el que la gente 
pueda organizar estos proyectos para conectar con 
otros para compartir este trabajo transformador 
para cambiar el mundo. Os invitamos a echar un 
vistazo a la informaci?n que encontrar?is en: 
https://docs.indymedia.org/view/Global/IndymediaAlternatives 
(ingl?s y franc?s).

CUERPO Te INVITAMOS a participar en el Indymedia Alternativas!!

Activistas que se esfuerzan por conseguir un 
cambio fundamental han conseguido ?xitos 
remarcables en los ?ltimos a?os, combinando 
manifestaciones masivas contra la guerra, la 
pobreza y una incontable cantidad de 
instituciones globales mediante herramientas en 
la red innovadoras de organizaci?n a largo plazo 
con las que se han creado discusiones p?blicas 
alrededor de los muchos problemas a los que se 
enfrenta nuestro mundo. Fuentes de informaci?n 
independiente como indymedia, y hasta cierto 
punto los medios de masas, han dado cobertura a 
este aumento del descontento, proporcionando un 
an?lisis sustancial de la mayor parte de las 
cosas que est?n "mal" en los actuales sistemas 
gubernamentales, sociales y econ?micos.

Al mismo tiempo, aunque con mucho menos 
fanfarria, mucha gente y organizaciones est?n 
trabajando para desarrollar sistemas que est?n 
"bien". Est?n centrados en soluciones que 
funcionen, como procesos participativos de toma 
de decisiones, econom?as equitativas, tecnolog?as 
de cooperaci?n y mucho m?s. Cultivan estructuras 
sociales y un modo de vida m?s sostenible. Si se 
anima, apoya y valora, estos proyectos tangibles 
y concretos podr?an representar un giro positivo 
hacia "un nuevo modo de ser"; el pr?ximo audaz 
paso del movimiento para crear un mundo mejor. 
Pero la noticia debe extenderse. Ahora mismo 
tenemos un desequilibrio en la cobertura de los 
problemas y la cr?tica y no hay la suficiente 
diseminaci?n de informaci?n sobre qu? est? 
funcionando en el mundo y c?mo puede la gente 
implicarse en este tipo de "experimentos".

El Alternatives Indymedia (titulo provisional) es 
un proyecto con m?ltiples objetivos:

1) Crear un sitio de Indymedia vibrante, 
inspirador y multiling?e a trav?s del cual los 
usuarios podr?n tanto compartir informaci?n sobre 
los esfuerzos actuales hacia un cambio 
fundamental como trabajar en colaboraci?n con 
proyectos para hacer que los cambios se produzcan en sus comunidades.

2) Hacer que el sitio web Indymedia Alternatives 
sea un sitio IMC/CMI de nueva generaci?n. Esto 
har? que se ofrezca tanto las habituales 
posibilidades de los IMCs (columna de publicaci?n 
abierta, columna central de editoriales) as? como 
edici?n colaborativa (conocida como edici?n 
abierta) y p?ginas de trabajo wiki, foros 
integrados y listas de correo orientadas a 
proyectos, blogs, RSS, y otros avances que 
inspirar?n la participaci?n activa en el sitio. 
Para conseguir esto, nos gustar?a trabajar con 
techs visionarios y programadores innovadores 
(?tal vez TU?) para ser pioneros en nuevas 
versiones de c?digo (tal vez usando Drupal, tal 
vez Plone), que ayudar?n a transformar los sitios 
de indymedia de rel?quias de una era ya pasada 
cuando la publicaci?n abierta en s? era 
considerada revolucionaria -- ?eso fue en el 
2000! -- en sitios elegantes, poderosos, 
INSPIRADORES que proporcionen a una nueva 
generaci?n de activistas los medios para trabajar unidos y conseguir
cambios.

Nuestra intenci?n es hacer que este sitio se 
convierta en un recurso indispensable para 
aquellas personas interesadas en los fundamentos 
b?sicos del cambio fundamental - el 
qui?n/qu?/d?nde/cu?ndo/porqu? de lo que la gente 
est? haciendo para mejorar el mundo -- as? como 
un laboratorio viviente para lxs que quieran que los cambios ocurran YA.

El grupo de trabajo del IMC Alternatives te 
invita a unirte a nosotrxs para realizar esta 
visi?n. Buscamos (1) t?cnicxs que est?n 
interesadxs en desarrollar sitios IMC de nueva 
generaci?n, (2) organizadorxs que compartan 
nuestro deseo de aprovechar el poder de Indymedia 
para avanzar en el cambio social, y (3) 
realizadorxs de medios a lxs que lxs guste cubrir 
alternativas, experimentos y soluciones que se est?n dando por todo el
globo.

Por favor, ?nete a nuestra lista de correo de 
trabajo en "imc-alternatives (a) 
lists.indymedia.org" (puedes hacerlo en 
http://lists.indymedia.org"). Tambi?n puedes 
contactar a Jay <jay at fundamentalchange.net> 
y/o Sheri <sheri at indymedia.org> para m?s 
informaci?n. Esperamos trabajar juntos para crear 
un cambio en la manera de pensar, de percibir y 
de voluntad pol?tica tanto individual como colectivo.
