Anyone else getting Error establishing a database connection trying to
bring this up?

Thanks

It was posted to /. this morning, so it is probably overloaded (I didn't
even try).

I think they were under a TCP-SYN attack :slight_smile:

The video was super choppy from here and I have bandwidth to burn at this time of the day. A little disappointing, but I'm sure (fingers crossed) someone will have a clean recording of it that they will make available.

The Windows Media stream was working for me (the others were giving the
database error), but it's all over now.

There's a press conference at 10:00am EST, but I'm not sure if it's going to
be webcast or not.

It didn't work too bad. Does anyone know why it was pretty much over at 9:30, when they said it would start? Did they start a half-hour early or something?

I saw that also. Switched to windows media stream which was working fine.
However,.. stream was not available on a IPv6 only host. Epic fail! :slight_smile:

I think that was just the ceremony for handing out the last /8s and it went very quickly. The press conference starts at 10:00.

Seemed the nro web site was v6 but the embedded video from flash.merit.edu was IPv4-only?

It definitely started at 9:30, and it was very short.

Boring actually. But that's the way it should have been. Not like this was a surprise. Even the reporter from ZDNet asked "since we gave out the last 2 to APNIC last week, why is this day important?" If ZDNet gets it, NANOG (actually *NOG) members should as well.

That said, I guess just like when any long time friend leaves us, we should have a ceremony to mark the passing.

I see Mr. Kolkman is involved in this press conference, and can therefore assume that Bert - working behind the scenes as he usually does - is fully responsible for depletion.

It started at 9:25 am -- I normally tune in to online videos late, but I'm
glad I checked earlier.
