Came across this today, I know that the HTML5 stuff has taken a back
burner, but I figured I'd share what I found.

Thanks,

Doug

Thanks Doug!

There are a few options for using different VNC clients on user's
computers, and it's cool to see a native HTML 5 client in the works.

The trick to using VNC is to get a VNC server running on the
presenter's computer. Of course, a presenter could download an
external VNC server and set it up manually, but that's not a scalable
solution. We currently use a Java applet to capture the presenter's
screen. We could theoretically run a VNC server in Java as an
applet, but we've not looked into that yet.

Regards,... Fred

BBB 0.7 on ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64-bit went off without a hitch.

I was all ready to hit up the source for appkonference or go and figure
out what jpackage I needed for tomcat.

I must say, that was an absolute breeze to setup.

Only thing I could possibly think to add is to bbb-conf setip ... but I
cannot begin to tell you how painless that entire install was.

I see the VM becoming less and less useful to people once they find out
how easy it is to setup
