vat, nv, wb all have "record" and "replay" applications that let a
person record/play a multicast session to/from disk. unfortunately there
is no ability to syncronize the playing of vat with nv and/or wb.

the mbone (anything to do with conferencing) is a good selling feature.
FreeBSD can now be the MBONE participant and MBONE router. It sounds from
reading freebsd mail there is getting more interest in conferencing, and
with more support of video capture cards, FreeBSD is a very cost effective
way to join the conferencing craze.
