At the State of the Net Tuesday again we have a healthy NYC contingent representing. Nancy Scola is moderating a panel on Digital Protectionism, Rachel Sklar is moderating a panel on Diversity that includes NYTM's Jessica Lawrence. Nilay Patel is on the Open Internet panel - along with Harold Feld! Nilay has to be an expert on NN since he moderated the Legal Hackers South Street Seaport special last July! And then, also from NYC is me (joly) doing the streaming.
 
Now, as far as the webcast goes. First the $99. SInce we are sponsoring the webcast we have negotiated a reduced rate of $25 for ISOC members. To get the rate all you have to do is email Paul Brigner (currently in Budapest so he will up early on Tuesday morning!) at [log in to unmask] and he will mail you back an individualized discount code. If you are not an ISOC member please join, it's free! While all that is confirmed for the webcast at the moment are the morning plenaries,  If you are seriously into Internet policy it has to be worth the 25.
 
 In the afternoon there are 3 tracks - see http://stateofthenet2015.sched.org/venues/ - and how and if and which will be streamed  is something I'll sort out on the fly. I'd like to do both those rooms on the 8th floor. My feeling is that, if nobody objects and it's technically feasible I might bounce room 807 out to another, possibly free, channel. If so I will announce here. Stay tuned.
