Difference: Collaborating (3 vs. 4)

Vidyo

CERN has decided to purchase and maintain the Vidyo video conferencing service in support of its research program including the LHC experiments. EVO will be phased out. Specifically, EVO will be maintained through 2012 in order to have a backup communications platform during transition.

More information about Vidyo can be found at the CERN Vidyo website.
