Bitreich Conference System

We  at bitreich want systems to just work and be useful. At the last bi‐
treichcon this year in Chemnitz, a  conference  system  was  tried  out,
which is easily deployable nearly everywhere.

What you need:

* wifi / network
* stable 512 Kb/s upload for audio
* bandwidth for low-band SSH and IRC connections
* one audio headset
* optional for room presentation:
	* big monitor / TV / projector
	* loudspeakers

Presenters  log  into bitreich.org and show their presentation using the
catpoint tools. Those are text presentations which  are  multiplexed  to
various outputs.

First from everywhere visitors can log in via anonymous ssh and see what
is shown. They hear what is presented through the audio server. Visitors
at  the conference see the presentation on their own de‐ vices or on the
big monitor and listen to the presenter.

At  least  one  person  in  the  room is on IRC and takes questions. The
speaker keeps to the order of always remembering the later  listener  to
the audio recordings to repeat questions.

The most important person is the moderator to keep order of speakers and
a clean audio recording.

If those rules above are taken into consideration, uploading the record‐
ings can be easily done after each session or in a  break.  No  postpro‐
cessing is needed.

Have fun!
