Hi Korhan, I was going to ask what you used to stream audio for that  
performance but now that I know you used Skype, let me ask; was it  
running with this new codec or the standard one? I'm not exactly sure  
what type of compression it uses but we were using skype with jack  
under linux with my friend for performance rehearsals (pieces were not  
calling for absolute syncing of course) it was fine but the sound  
quality was poor (that was more than a year ago so I assume it was the  
old codec). I'm eager to see this new stuff in action...

BB.
