[GNHLUG] [DLSLUG-Announce] DLSLUG Monthly Meeting -- Thursday, May 5

Tue May 3 10:30:23 EDT 2016


I will be away.  
Please note the room.
         
Topic:
Minecraft & Mumble

Bill & Will McGonigle will present SpigotMC and Murmur - open source
servers that host Minecraft worlds and Mumble voice chats.  Minecraft is
a block-building virtual world game (closed-source client) and Mumble is
a bandwidth-optimized realtime voice chat system, like an Internet-based
conference call.  The two technologies can be integrated but are also
useful on their own.

Topics will include a discussion of the clients and servers, deployment
on CentOS with Puppet, and challenges involved with hosting computer
services for children.  Will will provide a demonstration of the
technology and talk about interaction among children in a virtual world,
with an eye towards learning programming to modify the environment and
its rules.
