It's not just for this event - we've been streaming CSPAN to Internet2 (as
well as anyone else who wants to set up multicast peering with us - am I
allowed to say NLR on an Internet2 mailing list? :):) ) since.....gosh,
2000?  We first started out with VBrick devices before we went with the
Video Furnace solution in 2002.

But yes, this is probably the most viewership/interest we've ever had.
Enough that the higher-ups have asked us to put that little banner text at
the bottom of the streams.
