Hello!

Good that such kind of messages are appearing - those things are what I
promised to make  (but have not done yet) since last december) due to
being 'too busy' - to build a devoted interface/visualization for such a
landscape of 'transmitters' - where the streams are either temporary or
scattered im many servers - and sometimes must be updated extremely
operatively (i.e. controllable almost real-time).

I think that these suggestions about 'rotating' /expiring links (say 24
hours or so ), are a good option, too.
there could be something like a circles of streams that say last some
hour or so, then next level some day (a longer event) and the some
others that broadcast 24/7

For those, who say broadcast short time, bur regularly (like Ozone ) -
their link could activate - appear in the 'pool of links' exactly in the


days/hours of their broadcast.

The functionality of ICF RIS interface (giving a possibility to include
the .ra file (or in this case the URL), annotation, extra info  is
admirable and inspiring too -that could be fantastic to include similar
'database- connectivity' too...

About technical details - are there anybody on the list who have say
some script(-templates)s for say - PERL, MySQL, php3 - that could be
useful?

That I think sometime in the end of June there could be an firs working
prototype for this ... (i.e. then i foresees a bit looser time schedule
for me ...)

Greetings -
Jaanis.
