In theory, folks that go to ibiblio for software, radio, legal music, archives of history and technology resources (to name a few categories) will only see better performance and better response. We&#8217;ll see opportunities for stronger research relationships, more innovative networking solutions and experiments (we already do IPv6 streaming with those groups), more economic hosting, better opportunities for expansion as needed, and access to better bandwidth availability and pricing.<\/p>\n<p>First to be moved will be the radio streams. They should change tonight if all goes as planned.<\/p>\n<p>I just did an brief interview with the MCNC PR folks. I said something like:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We are delighted to be working with an innovative and creative and affordable group like <a href=\"http:\/\/mcnc.org\/\">MCNC<\/a> and with Joel Dunn and Mark Johnson in particular. MCNC really stepped up with some imaginative solutions to our bandwidth situation and added extremely reliable hosting (far above industry standards) while allowing us to keep our involvements in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.internet2.org\/\">Internet2<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nlr.net\/\">National Lambda Rail<\/a> (among others). Thanks to their good work, ibiblio will be cutting its operating expenses by 2\/3s while increasing bandwidth, increasing research involvment, getting room for expansion and will be located in an extremely well-planned and well-provisioned computerroom at the nexis of the RTP commercial and educational network crossroads of our region.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re moving ibiblio physically and networkedly to MCNC and NCREN.
