I've tried two ways of running a meeting with a mix of in person and WebEx participants. One way is that there is one computer, and it drives both the projector and the WebEx client. The "presenter" (person at the mic giving the presentation) doesn't run the computer, the chair does. This is not a great solution, because if the chair needs to manipulate the meeting, the in room attendees see what he is doing. The other way is that there are two computers. One is the chair's, it has a WebEx client, running the slide presentation (using "share application"). The other computer is running a WebEx client, as a participant and drives the projector. That way, the people in the room see the same thing as a remote participant. The latter works better IMO.

Agreed. The Meeting client is limited to 500 participants and does not support audio broadcasts. However, the IETF already broadcasts the PA audio. > If not, we have work to do, but it's applied engineering and not > research. It's a mix of in room, multiple mic, plus the remote > participants.

Need to work on developing utilities to allow remote participants to be heard within the room using a dedicated client. > I'm not as enthused as you are to get chairs to run the WebEx > session.

With WebEx, the presenters control their own sides and pass control. IMHO, WebEx should be continuously projected by a Net-Box attached to the projector. There are standard brackets for attaching the Net-Box. > I do think we ought to concentrate on the regular work group > meeting, and not deal with the plenaries yet. A hybrid approach could handle both environments fairly well. Unfortunately, the Event client is somewhat OS limited at this time. :^( > That puts us within the kind of range we should easily be able to > handle with the tools we are discussing. If we can get good WG > meeting tools, we can extend to good plenary tools. Agreed. -Doug
