i guess we would prefer servers over switches, though one (or maybe two)
switches might be nice.
servers can be useful for video encoding (whom do i tell.. :) but we could
also really use a second video file server and in the past local build
machines were also really nice. (eg, i could use a fast machine for some
piuparts work...).
so, servers as many as reasonable fit in your car? ;)
unfortunatly we dont know yet how many talks we'll have at the same time to
cover, but I assume its safe to plan for a dual-stream setup. and of course,
extra encoding machines could be used to create more streams, eg for playing
with dirac.
was that a helpful reply?
regards,
Holger
