Dear Mr. Aguyo,

A history

A few months ago I proposed that Dr. Ndemo give us a presentation on the Malili ICT Park so that we would be in the picture of what was going on.

Because I knew many would not have been able to attend we it was proposed that the session be recorded, and as there are members on this list who are not resident locally the recording should be digitised and posted online.

As a result of this proposal Skunkworks indicated that they would be able to set up an IPTV "station" and what they needed was a server to install onto.

The Present

To be able to assist them in putting up the "station" I and a few philanthropic Kenyan's have offered to finance the purchase of the server for the Skunkworks group as an R&D project and to test the local technical skill levels on the same.

I hope this clears the fog.

Scene One
 
Robert says:
 
I would like to offer 20,000/- towards the IPTV server and Hairy Harry has also agreed to contribute 20,000/- towards the same, please send us details on the project.

If there are any organisations or individuals out there who feel philanthropic enough, jionyeshe.

Evelyn can we get some rack space for this little box?
<This indicates that Bob and Harry are contributing 20k each to be used to set up an IPTV station>
Scene two
 
Robert says:
Once the prototype is tested we shall then move to the next level of commercialization at which point we shall look into the most appropriate hardware.  Please note that this is a knee jack reaction as a resolved of the fiasco that was Dr. Ndemo's presentation recording.

Murigi Muraya says:
<Skunkworks have been raising funds for a mail server that could also be used as a media or video conferencing server also if enough funds are raised to get a good server.>
 
Robert says:
So please lets move forward with the initial test I am interested in the IPTV component so the server is to be used solely for that purpose.
 
Now i do not understand this new venture. 
 
Sam
