Re: Cheap Open Source Morae Alternative

hi guys

new to this list, so hope you don't mind me adding my 2c here - just wanted
to check that you've taken a look at silverbackapp.com as a reference
interface for this project. It doesn't have an observer mode, just runs
usability test capture (screen capture + headshot) from a Mac, but has a
fairly nice, simple admin UI - worth a look and I think you can get a 30 day
trial for free. If not, sing out and I'm happy to do a screencast of my
installation.

hope that helps and good luck with this project - it's definitely needed!

Leisa
