K20 Meeting Agenda

Monday April 21 2008
Salon C

Support for embedded videos is still experimental. Once you begin watching an embedded video, it may continue to buffer even if you pause it to watch another video. Refresh the page to clear running videos. Audio seems to be OK in most cases - but not the best.  The embedded videos don't seem to play in Internet Explorer.  (Dan/Vdub144)
Notes provided by Emilie Stawiarski (THANKS!) will be incorporated here as well.
PLEASE feel free to add your own notes if you wish.
