Hello,

any plans for astricon videos?


If you are referring to AstriCon 2019 there was no filming of 
sessions. I did record my own, though, about PJSIP[1].

 Just a reminder: AstriCon is coming up in October in Washington, DC (
 http://www.astricon.net/
 ) and we're looking forward to seeing you there!

 We're getting to the deadline for Innovation Awards for this year.
 What's an Innovation Award?  The Innovation Award is designed to
 recognize developers, customers and partners for outstanding
 achievements that are improving business processes, overcoming
 technology challenges and enhancing the company's bottom line.  Digium
 picks five different categories in which certain projects or companies
 have excelled in the last year creating amazing things with Asterisk.
 The awards are presented at AstriCon.

 If you think you're doing something great with Asterisk, send it in!
 It's a great opportunity to be recognized as a leader in Asterisk
 development, implementation, and innovation.  August 1 is the deadline.

 More details here -
 http://www.digium.com/en/company/awards/innovation.php

 Send your Innovation Award proposal to Julie Webb (jw...@digium.com)
 for inclusion.


 AstriCon in general:
  I'll take this opportunity to ask everyone again to get your
 reservations in for AstriCon this year!  We're looking forward to a
 really good show, in a city slightly less oven-like than the past
 three years.  The conference has a fantastic line-up of speakers and
 as always, offers the opportunity to talk with people in an informal
 setting about their real-world experiences with Asterisk, VoIP,
 different hardware, methods of implementation, and make all sorts of
 connections that you just can't get without meeting face-to-face.
 Washington DC is convenient from Europe, with direct flights to IAD
 (Dulles), DCA (Reagan International), and BWI (Baltimore Washington)
 airports from most major European and South American cities.

Robin,

Thanks for the viddler.com suggestion! I'm uploading all of the ClueCon
videos to it right now.

John, so far I'd have to give viddler.com two thumbs up. I'm adding my stuff
here:
http://www.viddler.com/explore/cluecon

Your ClueCon presentation should show up some time on Friday. I've noticed
that there's a little bit of a lag time between upload and video being
available for viewing but that's completely reasonable under the
circumstances. Let us know what you decide.

As others have said, John, Viddler is good. If you have any
shorter-than 10 minute videos, you might put them on YouTube as well
for the sheer exposure and then add something pointing to a Viddler
URL for additional, longer content.

Something that didn't require flash (works on the iPhone) would be nice.

blip.tv may be an option.

 I'm doing some quick research on how to get our videos from AstriCon
 available in a reasonable format that allows easy viewing, reduces
 our bandwidth costs, and allows good tracking for who/where/what is
 viewing the videos.

 YouTube seems to have a very nice set of tools and statistics
 collection methods, and might be perfect EXCEPT  Their main
 limitation right now seems to be that they limit videos to 10 minutes,
 which clearly doesn't work for our longer presentations.  I could
 patch them together in multiple 10-minute sessions, but... ugh.   
 UGH.

 There are other video sites out there - lots, actually.  I could spend
 hours digging through them all, or hopefully ask here on the list and
 have some people give me prior experiences based on their expertise
 with hosted video solutions.

 Requirements (not exhaustive list):
   - free or very close to free (we'll pay, but not a lot)
   - good statistical collection (who is linking? how many views? how
 much video watched each view? where do people stop?)
   - reasonably easy interaction (good upload tools, good UI)
   - good viewing experience from North America, Europe, Asia

 Before anyone suggests it, I'm not interested in Torrent-based
 distribution for various political reasons.  I've started to look at
 Flowplayer, which is appealing due to it's OSS nature and
 customization capability, but it leaves us holding the bandwidth bill
 (which may not be horrible, but it's a concern.)

 What are your experiences?  I can't say we'll end up actually using
 what you might think is best, but I'm very interested to hear what
 everyone might suggest for distributing Asterisk-focused video  
 material.

 In the interests of keeping this thread from getting out of control,
 please limit yourself to factual, content-rich posts.  I hate
 YouTube or Why didn't you film blah is something we can discuss  
 off-
 list.

Not sure, but I guarantee the previous night was interesting :) The
VUC guys, sometimes led by Randal Happy Hour Schwartz, know how to
party. One night I got two hours sleep and was operating in virtual
mode during the day.

Ok, to be clear that was a feeble attempt at humor. I was the M.C. of
the Carrier/Call Center Track. There were many very good
presentations, but no video camera. Alistair has already posted his
slides. There were several others whose slides (I assume) will be
posted but which, as I say, were not recorded.

More summing up on VUC this Friday. Perhaps we can get Tim Panton to
tell us about his excellent presentation. Michael Graves will
hopefully be there as well.

talking about the keynotes, the sessions, the Code Zone and the
parties.

More Info: http://VUC.me
IRC: #voip-users-conference
Google Wave: open to VUC members who have Google Wave ID, please
contact anyone in VUC to be added to the VUC wave. Note that we do NOT
have any \/\/ave invites.

Technical Notes:

John Todd will someday have a g722 device, but for now he is still the
standard of voice quality by which all others are measured. The
general consensus is that a Polycom top of the line g722 phone under
normal non-airport noise conditions will produce a quality rating of 2
Jtodds. Last week's VUC was recorded with a quality of 0.5 Jtodds.
John Todd is currently at 1.0 Jtodds.

Re: [asterisk-users] AstriCon videos: a question of method

I like viddler. Nice stats and as far as i know, no limit in length.
Also a nice customizable player.

 YouTube seems to have a very nice set of tools and statistics
 collection methods, and might be perfect EXCEPT  Their main
 limitation right now seems to be that they limit videos to 10 minutes,
 which clearly doesn't work for our longer presentations.  I could
 patch them together in multiple 10-minute sessions, but... ugh.  UGH.

 There are other video sites out there - lots, actually.  I could spend
 hours digging through them all, or hopefully ask here on the list and
 have some people give me prior experiences based on their expertise
 with hosted video solutions.

 Requirements (not exhaustive list):
- free or very close to free (we'll pay, but not a lot)
- good statistical collection (who is linking? how many views? how
 much video watched each view? where do people stop?)
- reasonably easy interaction (good upload tools, good UI)
- good viewing experience from North America, Europe, Asia

 Before anyone suggests it, I'm not interested in Torrent-based
 distribution for various political reasons.  I've started to look at
 Flowplayer, which is appealing due to it's OSS nature and
 customization capability, but it leaves us holding the bandwidth bill
 (which may not be horrible, but it's a concern.)

 What are your experiences?  I can't say we'll end up actually using
 what you might think is best, but I'm very interested to hear what
 everyone might suggest for distributing Asterisk-focused video material.

 In the interests of keeping this thread from getting out of control,
 please limit yourself to factual, content-rich posts.  I hate
 YouTube or Why didn't you film blah is something we can discuss off-

 Or charge for full access!  Leave a few teasers, and charge some amount to 
 see them all.  I would pay - even close to attendance price... could only 
 help you get past break even ;)

I agree, I would be quite willing to pay for full access to all the videos from 
the Conference.

 The presentations will be available real soon now but the videos may

 Indeed, there will be a cross-section of videos available soon.  We're  
 working on the schedule for these, but it takes some time to post- 
 process the videos and then we're probably not going to put them up  
 all at once, nor will all of them appear.  Three of the four tracks  
 were taped, and we'll pick some highlights (I'm taking suggestions -  
 email me with your ideas if you liked a particular talk or want to see

 We have to balance a few things - if we put all the talks up, there is  
 a fear (not universally held, I might add) that it will effect  
 attendance next year.  Even a few percentage points would make the  
 conference go from what is essentially a break-even to in the red  
 and that's something we're trying very, VERY hard to avoid.  However,  
 posting the best talks will also excite people about attending next  
 year, so that's a positive for the conference.

John,

It would be great if you could make more of the talks available to those 
that attended the conference.  I know there were a few times where two 
interesting talks happened at the same time.

I have to agree John, I'd love to see the videos of the sessions that I
missed.  It's either that or I need to figure out how to clone myself
next year.

BTW, you did a great job with Astricon!  It was my first one and it
won't be my last.

[John Todd]

Michael Graves  Tim Yankey (Polycom) gave that talk.

The site has already been (perhaps a bit prematurely) turned into the  
AstriCon 2010 site.  There is a link to the 2009 data on the left  
column.

You can find the agenda for last week here:  
http://www.astricon.net/2009/astricon/agendaAtaGlance.aspx

The videos will be going up in the next few weeks; I'll post a blog  
post and probably here on the list when they start to appear.

The presentations will be available real soon now but the videos may  
take a bit longer.

Indeed, there will be a cross-section of videos available soon.  We're  
working on the schedule for these, but it takes some time to post- 
process the videos and then we're probably not going to put them up  
all at once, nor will all of them appear.  Three of the four tracks  
were taped, and we'll pick some highlights (I'm taking suggestions -  
email me with your ideas if you liked a particular talk or want to see  
something specific.)

We have to balance a few things - if we put all the talks up, there is  
a fear (not universally held, I might add) that it will effect  
attendance next year.  Even a few percentage points would make the  
conference go from what is essentially a break-even to in the red  
and that's something we're trying very, VERY hard to avoid.  However,  
posting the best talks will also excite people about attending next  
year, so that's a positive for the conference.

Also, we'd like to use the talks as more than just advertising for  
AstriCon.  These videos will hopefully be used for various teaching  
purposes, or for convincing people that they can do fantastic things  
with Asterisk just like the speaker did.  I hope to see them used as  
sales tools that are used with management when skilled IT staff need  
to make a point about Asterisk; I hope to see them used in educational  
sessions where students can learn about how to use free tools; I hope  
to see them used in discussions with governments about who is already  
using OSS Asterisk to solve telecommunications problems.

Lots of questions about this one.  There's definitely a demand for  
it so
I can see why Digium would be interested in exploring this option.   
Time

will tell how well it will work.  I'm personally not too excited about
bolt-on binaries which are probably not compatible with uClibc (and
therefore Astlinux).  That leaves us in the same place as we are with
codec_g729.  We're at the mercy of whoever creates these binaries to
produce one that will work for us.

According to them today, if the user initiates calls with someone  
outside the pbx, it will not go through the pbx. The user can register  
both to skyp and the asterisk also register the user. So, if the user  
initiates contact to another it is peer to peer outside the pbx.

 I talked with both Skype and Digium today at Astricon for a while on  
 this... it's actually going to be amazing. The license for Skype will  
 be the same way you license g.729. So yes, it's not free... but you're  
 only paying for in use channel capabilities... 

There are already a number of such Skype connectors. Some of them claim
to be free (that is: no charge). Some of them take money. I'm not sure
if Skype/eBay sees any of that. They tend to at least bend Skype's
license if not break it completely (e.g: run a client in a XNest server
is a common trick to work around the requirement in the license of the
Skype API for an interactive client).

So now that we have a blessed client for which Skype/eBay gets payed,
what happens to those others? Will they still be legal?

The Asterisk team said that
a) the skype for asterisk code does not act as a supernode - i.e. it  
only routes traffic
for local users, this was one of their requirements.
b) they _think_ that in the case where both ends of a skype to skype  
call are 'local'
the huge majority of the bandwidth remains local.
c) there will be configuration options controlling which of the  
transport methods skype
for asterisk will use. So you can disable skype over port 443 if you  
want to ensure that port is
available for your ssl webserver (for example)

On the topic of #pidgin they say, amomng others, Pidgin does NOT
support voice or video. Likewise we should state on #asterisk Asterisk
does NOT support text chats.

There are some awkward methods for sending some text messages over some
channels (SMS in european POTS, SIMPLE and simpler texxt messages in
SIP, XMMP for Jingle, and well, probably nothing in IAX. Bristuff ads
even a few more bits there).

But do we actually care routing those messages from one place to
another?

This is a major limitation of Asterisk for me. Text messages require
much lower a bandwith and a text connection is much easier to setup.
Hence it can work even when a voip connection is lousy.

Video ? that could be really nice but limited to pc/macasteriskwhatever.
There are tonns of 3G phones on the market, so why not to adapt software fot
the videocalls over wifi ? such a client is my dream for about a year, and i
dont care it it would be a skype or else. A new product for that purpose is
not a solution, but adapting software to existing 3G phones will open a HUGE
market recently created and closed for 3G operators w/licence. Any
suggestions ?

The specific thing here (that makes handling text messages within the

If you already have a path to someone, why should you be forced to *discover* 
another path to them for some other, simpler protocol?

Keeping in mind that the product has not yet entered beta testing... at
this time, all chat messages are ignored by the Skype For Asterisk
product. We have discussed today the possibility of being able to send
chats to Skype users (sort of a way to do 'screen pop' information for a
call you are about to send them), but haven't got any plans at the
moment for incoming chat messages.

Skype For Asterisk will be distributed as a separate package. We do not
know yet what (if any) requirements will have to be handled for
disabling the relay functionality.

I know a lot of linux and open source people think it's superfluous,
but a pseudo chan_skype is huge (assuming it works as advertised). It
means anyone with Skype can connect to your server presence. And
presumably you can call people via Skype. And use Skype out, etc.

It's essentially a channel driver.
Licensed per channel in the same way that the  g729 codec is.

Limited private beta opening soon.

They demoed it - everyone seems pretty confident it works

No wide-band codec  (yet)

I talked with both Skype and Digium today at Astricon for a while on  
this... it's actually going to be amazing. The license for Skype will  
be the same way you license g.729. So yes, it's not free... but you're  
only paying for in use channel capabilities... but think of the  
benefits... Skype will work just like let's say SIP or ZAP or IAX2  
would in the dial plan... so you could have SKYPE\username  
registered as an extension... or ... even in a queue which I am really  
excited about. You could registered as many usernames as you want...  
and then have as many simultaneous calls as licenses... great for  
calling out and even really awesome for calling in. Plus, unlike  
regular skype, on the callin, you can have multiple channels. It's  
really very exciting.

It's still early, but still, nobody has answered my question as to
whether Skype will be using my Asterisk server's CPU and bandwidth to
bridge calls between anonymous third parties (i.e. two people not
involved in my call plan in any way, just using my Asterisk server as a
bridge for their lame, NATted connectivity) they way they do with their
client.

Y'all do realize with Skype that they bridge calls between two parties
using a third, anonymous, (donor) party, when the two parties cannot
connect to each other because their NAT and/or firewalls are too
restrictive to allow them to connect directly, right?

Lots of questions about this one.  There's definitely a demand for it so 
I can see why Digium would be interested in exploring this option.  Time 
will tell how well it will work.  I'm personally not too excited about 
bolt-on binaries which are probably not compatible with uClibc (and 
therefore Astlinux).  That leaves us in the same place as we are with 
codec_g729.  We're at the mercy of whoever creates these binaries to 
produce one that will work for us.

Do the extra tracks.  With a recording to review at night or online that 
nullifies the problem of picking.  Really, with most presentations 
having slides all you need is fair video but excellent audio.  How quick 
could this be turned around?

In addition can you extend the hours of the vendor area.  Last year it 
closed almost right after the talks.  You had to pick between the talks 
and seeing what was new.

 I agree with Matt, choosing between even different topics or tracks
 can be difficult let alone similar topics.
 
 Recording almost seems like a no brainer, this is Asterisk after all.
 All attendees could probably cough up a little extra for the DVD if
 need be.  It could also be sold I guess, but I would rather see the
 videos on YouTube or AsteriskTV or whatever free outlet.

It's probably worth looking at the history of other large national
technical conventions like Usenix and NANOG; Usenix makes proceedings
available on line for free, and NANOG, the actual video recordings of
the talks.

The customary appraisal seems to be that this doesn't significantly
affect the number of paid attendees, because there are many worthwhile
advantages to physically attending the conference which you don't get
from merely viewing the panel sessions on tape.

Doing it is, admittedly, a non-trivial exercise... but it's a lot less
difficult now than it used to be.

Worth considering (he says, knowing that he won't be able to talk the
boss into sending him... :-)

Re: [asterisk-users] Astricon question: four or five tracks?

[Matt Florell]

Hello,

I would recommend that if you do add another tech track that you spend
a great deal of effort trying to make sure that sessions that would
appeal to similar audiances are not done at the same time. This has
happened a few times in past Astricons and it's always a tough choice
for attendees that are interested in both talks to choose between
them.

To this end, I might suggest even video-recording the presentations to
be replayed at night during the conference(or possibly on the web) so
attendees can see what they missed if they were unable to sit in on a
presentation.

One other suggestion I might make is that after 6PM I think there
might be a benefit from loosly structured BOF or discussion sessions.
There is only so much Red Bull and Alcohol you can drink in the code
zone. I quickly organized two after-hours discussion sessions during
last year's Astricon and actually had a few dozen people involved in
each one, it would be great if this could be done on a larger scale
and officially organized.

Thanks,

MATT---

  We're busily churning away at creating the Astricon
  (http://www.astricon.net/) talk track this year, and it's been
  delayed by a problem that we've never had in years past: too many
  high-quality talk submissions.   Not a bad problem to have, but still
  a problem.

  We have four tracks on the schedule:

   1) Business Track - this relates to things like creating business
  models around Asterisk, technologies that embed aspects of Asterisk
  into their platforms, discussions of open source in the marketplace,
  and new technologies that can be added to Asterisk for specific
  application delivery reasons, among other topics.

   2) Technology Track - Intro/Intermediate - Topics here range from
  basic introductions to Asterisk  as far as feature sets and
  capabilities, and even into the moderately challenging topics of
  introductions to embedded systems and case studies.

   3) Technology Track - Advanced - This includes more advanced
  implementation studies, protocol topics, new Asterisk features (LUA,
  for example), and inner workings of various Asterisk and third-party
  components.

   4) Technology Track - Call Center/Large Scale - More case studies
  here but focused on large-scale systems.  Carrier issues such as call
  recording, conferencing, clustering, and call center topics.


  We have had an overwhelming number of top-notch technical submissions
  for talks this year, which has been GREAT.  Last year, we heard that
  there was a desire for even more technical tracks, so this year will
  fulfill that need.  But we're stuck - we have way more topics than we
  have slots in the 4-track schedule, and so we've hit an impasse.
  We've had to start looking at cutting some really interesting topics
  because we simply don't have the space in the schedule.  This is a
  terrible position, and so we're looking for what we can do to fix the
  problem.

  The obvious choice is Well, why don't you add a fifth track?  So
  that is why I'm putting this message out.  It's possible for us to
  add a fifth advanced technical track, but that would mean that there
  would be at any one time FIVE talks happening, four of which would be
  technical, and three of which would be classified as advanced.  It
  will certainly be the case that there are overlapping areas of
  interest.  Even with a fifth track, we are STILL going to have to
  turn down a few of the requests in the queue because of lack of
  slots, and at this point extending the conference another day is a
  very difficult option due to the hotel scheduling which is done far
  in advance.  We also had some feedback from years past that a two-day
  conference seemed to suit everyone's schedules better, so this may be
  some unintended consequences from the compression.

  Our question to the community is:

   Is it too much to have 5 talk tracks at Astricon?

  Our initial instinct is Go ahead and do it but this does sound like
  a question that should be posed to the people who will attend.  Your
  opinion would be valued if you could take the time to reply, but
  please try to summarize at the top of any replies with a Yes or
  No (even if you have more things to say) so I can keep a bit closer
  eye on the reply volumes.  Feel free to reply on or off list.

 Hello,

 To this end, I might suggest even video-recording the presentations to
 be replayed at night during the conference(or possibly on the web) so
 attendees can see what they missed if they were unable to sit in on a
 presentation.

I was very surprised that presentations were not video taped or at the
least recorded at the last Astricon.

I agree with Matt, choosing between even different topics or tracks
can be difficult let alone similar topics.

Recording almost seems like a no brainer, this is Asterisk after all.
All attendees could probably cough up a little extra for the DVD if
need be.  It could also be sold I guess, but I would rather see the
videos on YouTube or AsteriskTV or whatever free outlet.

Thanks,

VON may be dead, but AstriCon is alive and well!  The AstriCon
conference will be from September 23rd through the 25th in the brand new
Renaissance Glendale Hotel just outside Phoenix, AZ.  More information
(including registration and hotel information) is at the AstriCon
website at http://www.astricon.net/

Having assisted with AstriCon since almost the very beginning, I can
assure you that we're doing everything we can to make this the best
AstriCon ever.  (If you're interested in presenting or exhibiting at
AstriCon, now is the time to let us know!)

If you have any other questions regarding AstriCon, please don't

  For the benefit of those outside

  Astricon; I wanted to send out this email.
  
  
  For those of 
  you who attended Astricon in Dallas last week what was the one thing that 
  you saw that made the trip worthwhile?
  (if we post 
  enough information or comments it will be of benefit for those that didn’t 
  attend)
  
  
  
  For me personally it was the 
  volume of neat add-on applications that the Asterisk community are developing; 
  Over time I’m hoping that this leads to something like AppExchange from 
  Salesforce.com were people can choose from over 300+ applications or addons 
  for SF.
  
  I really want to see more speech 
  recognition applications but I think it’s great what Lumen-vox are 
  doing.
  
  I’d also like to see someone post 
  some more modified “ftp to text to speech” http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/asterisk+at+home+festival+weather+configuration
  It doesn’t need to be weather, how 
  about Oil futures or wheat prices or score for the weekends games. Any text 
  file accessible by FTP can be implemented into this script. I’d like to see 
  more.
  
  I’m hoping that over time we can 
  see even more to the point that people buy Asterisk just for the applications 
  and we can quote the same price if not more than cisco because of these addon 
  applications.

We attended the Astricon in California, US last year. Although it was not 
what we expected, we did feel like we gained enough knowledge to make it 
worth the time and expense to attend.


Good luck and let us know how you like the show if you end up attending.

We did have dialin conference calls and even IRC up on the big screen during

 You're thinking old school.

I am thinking the convention was set up for money, I cant believe that
the rate generates no profit.  Not that profit is a bad thing, but
anyone doing something for profit isnt going to stab themselves in the
back to prevent that profit.

There is added value to go in person, you get to have side
conversations, do networking, get to see the slide shows (which can be
done via a webpage) etc.  But there is something better about being
there in person.  So I believe people would go, but maybe not as many,
and there is a cost to providing it voip style, bandwidth, servers, etc.

Of course if you really wanted to be clever you would have several nodes
that people call into, which are all connected to the main server that
is at the conroom hooked up to the microphone, etc.  That way all the
traffic to the main server is stable and relatively low, and the leaf
nodes (other asterisk boxes) have the brunt of all the traffic.  This
way the hub server would not be flooded off ruining everything for
everyone when 134091309451093 people try to connect to it.

Adding the record functionality and muting participants would also mean
that the hub server would be able to make audio files available after
the lecture is over.  The main server could run a shoutcast stream to be
fed to mp3player() or something on the leafs (idealy you would want a
proxy on the leafs so each leaf causes 1 and only 1 stream off the main
hub.

Could be a good marketing tool.  Tout the final number of clients
connected in such a distributed environment listening live.  Show the
power to skeptics.

i'd think that muting would be a prerequisite, even if recording was not 
done. it'd be audio bedlam otherwise, and the speakers would be drowned out.

we had such ideas to use asterisk to broadcast our recent HackInTheBox 
Security Conference (conference.hackinthebox.org), but bandwidth prices at 
the venue were too high to make this viable, given that it's not revenue 
generating.

corporate sponsors :P

Aside from that there are alternatives if you are just doing a one way
stream.  With the proper gear wifi can carry a signal a considerable
distance, providing you can get the elevation on one end or the other,
or both (easiest since total height is divided between the two sites).
Most venues dont like people rigging up a c band dish in the swimming
pool area though :P

Then feed that to some site that is more remote than the venue, perhaps
a home or office of a local person, who gets the feeds to a bigger
badder server.  If doing one way latency and all that isnt that big of
an issue and you dont need that much bandwidth.  

If you were to only shoutcast streams at telephone quality you could
easily do that over dialup.  There are $10/mo tollfree dialup providers
in the US that could be used.  1 stream which feeds a bigger server that
handles all the clients.  Or depending on need, one stream off dialup to
a server that feeds 5+ leaf nodes where the end users connect to.  If
doing it asterisk style you can use mp3player() within asterisk to
connect to the aggregator system (ie what dialup feeds) or even the
leafs if you are big enough, yes there will be some delay, but it would
still work, however complex this has gotten.

http://lbtech.com/dialup/  (I am not affiliated with them just know they
advertise what I claimed earlier).  
Monthly cost - $9.95 (NO additional fees or taxes, no matter how much
you use the connection)  All off a US tollfree.  Could work to get the
feeds out of the building to a server somewhere to distribute that as
needed in whatever formats are required.

And if its a lecture hall, a direct feed from the microphone into a
system that does the streaming, you only need mono and low quality
bitrate for it to be quite acceptable.  

In theory, you could do several lecture halls at the same time off one
system with one inet connection, sound gear would be the hardest thing
for a laptop.  Maybe usb/BT audio devices given limited port spaces on
laptops.  Maybe multiple laptops doing wifi or whatever to each other to
share that connection.  

Even if it costs a small setup fee to get the outside line from a
conference hall (they will normally charge at least per outbound call,
if not a fee to have a line activated in the hall itself) the total cost
should be well under $20 to provide this, plus whatever it takes to
distro the streams to individuals, and that could actually be lowered by
having individuals with spare bandwidth donate systems to act as leaf
nodes.

Just a thought for next time this becomes an issue :)  But to spread out
the asterisk boxes in theory you could support many hundreds if not
thousands of clients at the same time off what appears to be the same
feed.  Using something liek ser (www.iptel.org/ser) as a front end you
could provide a unified sip address to people and have ser do load
balancing to the actual asterisk boxes acting as an application server.
