IETF 62 inagurates a new streaming effort. Instead of covering only two rooms it is our intention to cover all eight. Instead of multicast video delivery, unicast audio-only. It is our hope that this new effort will provide more useful timely and accessible access to the proceedings of the IETF as they happen.
So IETF multicast survived for exactly 13 years, beginning March 1992 in San Diego and succeeded in March 2005. It is too bad that inter-domain IP multicast didn't get off the runway, but at least it lives on within enterprises and academia.
I look forward to more opportunities for multicast evangelism in the future. I think I can speak for Hans, Lucy, myself and the rest of the crew at the UO when I say we still believe that multicast holds out the promise of an empowering, subversive technology for data delivery whose time will come.
