Hi Zena and Byron,
I just wanted to thank you both again for organizing my thesis defence so amazingly, I have heard of people having total nightmares trying to get videoconferencing working in these situations and I couldn't believe how smoothly Byron got everything running. Many thanks for your help and support!

Thank you very much for your assistance during our three-day IPinCH meeting at IRMACS. This was a critical meeting for our project, one that brought together 20 team members in person (including colleagues from South Africa and Australia) and a number via remote means. That we were able to meet our objectives so well is very much a reflection on both the IRMACS facilities and, of course, on you, Brian, and other members of the IRMACS team.

This was my first real interaction with IRMACS, and I was amazed at how wonderful the staff and the facilities were. ... As a speaker, it was certainly a pleasure to have everything work on the first try ... Soroosh Yazdani

Everyone on the staff was a pleasure to be around!  They were extremely friendly and helpful - they acted like they were happy to have the conference-goers around all the time, rather than like we were a burden.  This is true of the women at the reception desk, the computer support woman, and the technical support guy in the room itself.
