Re: [backstage] University Tour dates

2007-02-20 Thread Paul Hart

Yeah I've been a bit of a lurker too :-)

I'd be happy to help arrange anything at Strathclyde Uni, only thing I'm not
to sure about is the topic of these events?  Is there any blurb about what
you guys will be talking about.

I'll contact Ian Forrester  Graham Gillies off list if thats OK.

Hi Paul,

We plan to go to a lot more places, but we're booked solid this term.
Summer terms are usually pretty solid for students and staff, so we're
looking to pick up the pace again in September.
The best thing to do, is drop us a email and we can talk about the tour
in-depth

[backstage] BBC Clocks in SVG

2007-02-20 Thread dom
Hello Backstage,

Yet another lurker!  I noticed on the ideas blog yesterday that Ian Forrester 
had suggested using SVG or similar to recreate the old BBC School clocks.  His 
original post is here 
http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/ideas/archives/2007/01/bbc_clocks_as_a.html

I haven't managed the school clocks yet, but I have managed to recreate three 
of the old BBC 1 clocks, as used at junctions going into the news. It's my 
first experiment with mixing SVG+Javascript, so be gentle!

http://www.domsmith.co.uk/bbc_clocks/
(Obviously only works in browsers with SVG support, such as Firefox - sorry IE 
users)

Best wishes,

Dominic.

[backstage] DRM Podcast Video

2007-02-20 Thread Matthew Cashmore
Sorry this took longer than planned but the video of the DRM Podcast is now
available ­ the low quality version is here

http://blip.tv/file/152907

Again it¹s a Creative Commons Attribution licence.

I¹ll get the HQ version up tomorrow when I can persuade our network that
790mb of video isn¹t a bad thing, and that it should let me upload it :-)
I¹ll add both the videos to the RSS feed for the podcast here in the
morning.

No, because you can upgrade CC licenses to the latest versions yourself.
