XS Server Discussion

These are services which the School server might provide. Services already deemed essential are listed separately.

Please help by adding links to existing pages discussing these topics, if you are aware of them

SIP Directory

The School server should support a local SIP directory, allowing mapping from SIP "phone numbers" to IP addresses.

Instant Messaging

Should a separate Instant Messaging service be hosted by the School server?

News

Should the School server support student/teacher/school Blogs?

Should the school server support Forums ?

Video

While static video objects, such as movies and short clips, may be stored and accessed using the Library service, local distribution of live video requires a dedicated service.

Aside from this, much of the long tail video distribution may be best handled by P2P clients directly on the laptops. Discussion ?
