Hi all,
I've spent a little time looking at fully open-source videoconferencing
services and it turns out jit.si is the most (actually: only) usable
one. I'd like to try moving next week's meeting from BlueJeans to
meet.jit.si (which is the free service they provide by just running
their open source package somewhere.)
The URL for the meeting will be:
https://meet.jit.si/frr-weekly
No registration or anything is required. There are Android and iOS
apps, so if you use one of these devices please download the app.
Other than that, maybe just try loading the URL above and see if it
works :)
The primary rationale for the change is that jit.si is fully open source
which IMHO merits at least a try to see how FOSS is doing in the
videoconferencing field.
If we run into problems, we can just fall back to BlueJeans as usual.
Cheers,
David
P.S.: the one major downside is that with the meet.jit.si service, we
won't have a moderator for the room. Please make sure you're not
sending noise into the conference and always mute your microphone when
not speaking.
