But radio is a very technical business! Just different to IT. :-) Yes, there
are lots of people involved in SLUG that could help out with this. I've just
been in touch with 2SER about ways that we can work together -> might turn
out very well.

I'm going to give ABC a call too. There's a great precendent in the BBC's
use of Ogg Vorbis, hopefully both stations will show an interest.
Thanks, and again to Andrew who brought the topic up on list,
