Icecast - Mar 2023 - Your message to Icecast awaits moderator approval

Yes, but we all get to read them as they go to everyone :)

It is a bit old fashioned. And it?s probably run on a Linux server that hasn?t
even been rebooted for a decade. I myself am waiting for a response to my email,
which I?m not sure if it has ever gone out.

I had a look for a decent Icecast forum but only found one that wasn?t running
anymore. I don?t really understand it - streaming has never been more ubiquitous
- and Icecast has always been the ?standard?. So what the hell is going on? I do
wish someone would explain!!

The machine isn't nearly as old as that to begin with. ;)

likely not. Haven't found something with that subject in the recent
list. Answered.

"Web" forums are super old fashion. I mean they even predate IP and E-
Mail...

I'm also wondering why I hear something like this from someone who I
don't know from this list, IRC, the presentations, business networks,
or any real life events.

Also everone please keep in mind that this is a community project. It
is as active as people provide their free time to the project.

Sure you can look up the old messages. The link is attached to every
mail that comes via the list.

You find the archives of 23 years(!) here:

Happy reading. :)
