Attention all Sametime guru's! I would greatly appreciate your input on this particular query.
We have Sametime Standard running here and whilst the voice in meeting rooms is an order of magnitude better than it was there is still a bit of latency between end of speech and delivery.
Is there any way of improving this and allowing "overspeak" when 2 parties speak and the same time and the voices come at the same time?
Any input or wisdom of the sages appreciated! :-)

Last Sametime V8.0.1 upgrade woe resolved
Recently we upgraded our core ST server to V8.0.1 and thereafter we could not get the other servers in the community to connect. Most of the servers were upgraded and the problem went away but a difficult to get at satellite server remained at version 7.5 and it was resolutley rejected by the other servers.
The sametime log showed
28/Jul/08, 20:20:02 Rejecting server 999.999.999.999 - reported security level=0
Now I had come across this before back when we moved from Sametime V6 to V7 and the fix defined here fixed the problem by setting VP_SECURITY_LEVEL=0 The V8.0.1 upgraded Sametime.ini had VP_SECURITY_LEVEL=25. Once this value was set to 0 all the V8* servers and the ST services restarted . All the community servers now chat merrily to each other.
According to the bumph here this setting should define what is the lowest server allowed to connect. This was set to 25 it had previously been 75. Since 25 is less than 75 there shouldnt have been a problem ... there was.
At least it was easily fixed and all the ST'ers are now happily IM'ing each other.

Adobe Connect Me rather too sexy! Sametime looks rather dowdy :(

Just had a play with ConnectMe.. the Flash driven Web Conferencing offering that Adobe are pushing out to the web ... OOOOOO MY!
24 Seconds from Clicking load to opened conference
It's slick, dark and sexy. I freely admit to be being one of those people that are impressed by shiny new things. There doesn't appear to be any functional difference with ST 8 It is just WAY more sexy.
I Think it best if we do NOT show this to the CIO anytime soon.
