Hi Dennis, all,
As an emergency measure, I've reserved for you the *FRENCH* MCU for the Monday BiG Grid end-user meeting. Since this is an HEP service, I've added "NLT1" to the title, please ignore that :-)
Note that the DIAL-IN IP number is now different, and the PIN code is "1111"
Cheers, DavidG.

Hi,
for those of you regular users of the BiG Grid video conferencing setup: Surfnet discontinued this service because they offer another service called SURFcontact as of March 2009 and decided to phase out the old MCU.
While I share your surprise and disappointment over this sudden change, it was apparently announced as early as last year by Surfnet, although this never reached me.
Things being as they are, this leaves us in a bit of a situation for the upcoming meetings. For conferencing between two parties it is no problem to use point-to-point connections, but for multiple users some other service needs to be used.
The replacement service, SURFcontact, is under consideration, but the service terms and conditions are much different from what they were.
I'll keep you informed.
