[Uni-verse] Re: Reports for the review URGENT

[Lauri Savioja]

Hi Gert,

Good point! I had forgotten this issue completely since early December
and it seems that most of us have the same situation. This was
discussed in the verse-dev list and the last mails were on Dec
2nd. Based on those mails it seemed that Eskil promised to try to take
a look on the server code and after that none has done anything to
this problem.

For the sound rendering demonstrator audio streaming would be nice but
we can live without it. For the functionality of the demonstrator it
is not essential but more it will show the capabilities of the Verse
protocol. Ludde, what do you think?

If you feel more safe to change the wording to a softer form on this
part, please feel free to edit it :-).

Regards,
	Lauri
