Thanks for the share Dev. Have to re-evaluate some remote hub plans then. Tough to lose equipment, seemed quite flammable from the report. Major concern on the CDN issue and if/how it could affect the quality of the remote participation. It is applicable. Is there more technical information with respect to this? Regards, Jason Hynds.

"However, two services will not be available as a result of the fire:
Interactive Remote hubs. Remote video hub operations have provided live broadcasting of participants from preapproved locations into select Main Hall sessions. Due to the complicated matrix-style setup and equipment needed to provide this service in multiple languages, ICANN cannot provide this service in time for ICANN57. Remote participation in sessions is not affected.
Content Delivery Network (CDN) service. Provided by Akamai, CDN servers host content from thousands of companies on a local server, which significantly improves response time of downloads and updates for participants. Without the CDN service, you will still have Internet access, but might notice slower response times for select downloads." _______________________________________________ ttf mailing list ttf@atlarge-lists.icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/ttf
