Re: [Ekiga-list] [nylug-talk] assistance with free-ing educational text btg

[chaitanya mehandru <chinku linux gmail com>]

Hi, I already joined the list and said 'Hi'. My name is Chaitanya Mehandru. I am currently half way through building ekiga 3 on kde 8.04. Some issues with the Makefiles to be resolved. Can we talk about this in advance..? I have build the opal and ptlib successfully.

Thanks,

Chaitanya Mehandru

Hi Boris :)

Pliant looks interesting :)

We at the BerkeleyTIP global monthly meeting are working toward having
remote persons give talks for the meeting.  We've already successfully
used a VOIP conference server for several months, & have had attendees
from NorthCarolina, Michigan, Washington State & Hawaii.

This month we might have a talk about Ekiga 3 given from India.

Where in the world are you?  Do you have VOIP capability?

I'd suggest you join the BTIP mailing list & say "Hi", & tell us your
thoughts on what you could cover in your P talk.

Maybe we could start with a 5 minute mini talk this Feb 7, just so we
all can better get the feel of doing live talks.  :)

We don't yet have a procedure for showing slides, or live computer
output, but that will come in time.

I hope to hear from you on the BTIP list!  :)
