History

When the Cockatoo Island Dockyard was in operation, Sydney Ferries Limited operated services to the island at shift changeover times.

In April 2007, the wharf reopened for a three-month trial coinciding with the reopening of the island as a tourist attraction.[1] Since then services have expanded, and today it is served by Sydney Ferries Parramatta River services operating between Circular Quay and Parramatta. [2] It is also the terminus for all stops Cockatoo Island services from Circular Quay. [3] The single wharf is served by First Fleet and RiverCat class ferries.

gollark: mpd has native HTTP output, but icecast provides better compatibility and some sort of manual buffer control (?) which provides greater audio stability in e.g. the music bot.
gollark: This is, I believe, widely considered the standard for audio streaming servers, although it has some annoying parts.
gollark: Now, mpd feeds into a server called "icecast".
gollark: This is a web client for mpd which allows me to queue new tracks, search things, and that sort of thing, from my "web browser" on my laptop or phone.
