To my knowledge, nobody at WRFU is actively examining automation and/ 
or streaming packages at this point. Personally, it would be great to  
deploy open source solutions to our computer needs but given the  
actual gear on hand and apparent lack of technical expertise in this  
area among our group I feel like we're kind of stuck here.
