[PLUG-AV] Fwd: [plug-ctte] EotW streaming http://www.eotw.com.au/ 2015

[Luke John]

So I should clarify that I am the eotw team for streaming this time round.

I'm confidant that I am across the equipment/software enough to have
it setup and running.

I'm happy to do 100% transport/pickup/packup/dropoff at end.
