Hi folks,

Its that time of year when this board/mac committee meets to plan CCTV’s technology needs for 2007. In the end, we present a plan to the board for buying and replacing all aspects of our technology. Along the way we get to decide on stuff like new software, cameras, studio gear, cable systems technology, new tele and web services, etc, and try to prioritize it all within a nicely approvable budget. The board of directors will then take our considerations and budget proposal and make a call.

We only do this once per year, and we have to approve the budget before the year end so that we can start purchasing on Jan 1 if we have to. We should get started on this fairly soon.

Here are a couple of proposed dates, please get in touch and let me know what works best for you:

Wed, Nov 1, 7PM
Tues, Nov 7, 7PM
Wed, Nov 8, 7PM
Suggest your own

Since we are the people responsible for planning our technological future, I'm going to try out some experimental technology with our committee.

This forum here is one of our new CCTV Groups, a group much like Yahoo does, except CCTV centric and hosted on the CCTV site. Let's try using this forum for all of our communications, it will help us track discussions, comments, critique and will make our planning and communication more accessible for us tech heads. You have to register as a member of this website, then you can join this group.
