mailing-list for TeXmacs Users

["Adrian S." <address@hidden>]

Is it possible to stream the talks to be able to see them.  Maybe a
hangout in google plus?

To set that up one would only need a laptop streaming.

I would be very interested in watching the stream.

Also, if there is funding to go, what should I do to attend.  If my
finances would allow me, I would go.

Thanks!

-Adrian.
