Hello everybody!

This year our goal is to provide a much better video coverage for the 
EuroPython conference. This means we want to stream the talks and record 
them automatically while streaming. As EuroPython is a community driven 
conference I hope to find people who can help me with that task!

So here is what we need:

- Camcorders with Firewire-Connection (please tell which types of
   connections it has)
- Laptops with Firewire-Connections (PC or Mac) and mic-in.
- Tripods
- Firewire-Cables (which fits cameras and laptops
- People who control cameras (best would be more than 1 person per room
   so people are free to maybe attend different talks)
- optional: DV-Tapes if you want to record it as well
- optional: People who edit the footage afterwards (as this takes a lot
   of time it's unlikely that one person will do this on it's own in it's
   sparetime).

I hope that we can get sound from the soundsystem at the hotel. If not 
it would also be great to have some wireless microphones but as they are 
expensive I doubt that somebody has a bunch around?

If you have something like that and would be able to provide this for 
streaming purposes (means staying in one room) then please tell me. The 
more the better and the better will be the result in the end. You can 
ask questions on the list or reply to me at cs at comlounge.net.

I hope to hear from many of you guys and that we tigether can make EP 
2008 a success! :-)
