Taylor Snyder, who was managing the wireless projects, has been off sick for quite sometime.  He is back today.  He reports that the engineering is done but Bart is waiting for antennas.  Taylor will update Project Office as soon as he can.  He has a lot of catching up to do so give him a couple days to get the updates into Project Office.
I've asked whether there is any way to track this progress.
2/3/2005 There is an OIT project, documented in the title of the task.

I want a map showing the locations of all of the wireless access points in the ceilings so that we can support the system. I turned in an AHD request #644806.

Emailed Nyle asking how we track progress.

3/1/2005 We received a map, but it didn't show where the wireless hubs were located. Also, it only included the first four floors. I reopened the ticket in AHD.
3/3/2005 OIT is wiring the conference rooms, specifically: 1120, 1131, 2070, 2103, 2104, 2238, 2824, 3420 and 6525.
3/9/2005 As of today there was no wireless in room 1131. Emailed the project manager, Taylor Synder with this information.

2/13/2004 I need to know how much effort this is. If it is easy, then we may consider adding this to the image. If it is not, then we need to work with Gail regarding a scaled back proposal, such as computers in her reference area.
Description: Track PCs by replacement status

1/6/2005 Brett is acquiring streaming hardware for test.

I wrote to Brett: While you are testing on-the-fly streaming, could you include streaming from a phonograph? I'm hoping that whatever system you are looking at can just take an analog input (RCA or stereo jack, or whatever) and stream it. If it can, then another big problem with the LRC and the listening lab can be resolved. Without wanting to add too much overhead, once you have the equipment in-house I'd like to pull a couple of people together to determine what formats we need to test (CD, DVD, audio, video, VHS, phonograph records, 8 track tapes) and to what locations do we need to test (in-library, on-campus, off-campus).

1/14/2005 Randy approved funding.
