Thank you all for the feedback as we continue to evolve the community meetings. As we plan the next community meeting, we will actively investigate using a Jitsi instance and communicate back on the ML about how that progress is going. Today’s meeting will be on Zoom (in about 10 minutes!), but like I mentioned earlier, the recordings will be available via the Project Navigator and YouTube for folks who would not like to login to the platform. I’ll start a new thread when we make progress towards the next community meeting. If there is any other feedback, please let me know.

Could we *PLEASE* stop the Zoom non-sense?
Zoom is: - known to have a poor security record - imposes the install of the desktop non-free app (yes I know, in some cases, it is supposed to work without it, but so far it didn't work for me) - controlled by a 3rd party we cannot trust
It's not as if we had no alternatives. Jitsi works perfectly and was used successfully for the whole of debconf, with voctomix and stuff, so viewers can read a normal live video stream...
If the foundation doesn't know how to do it, I can put people in touch with the Debian video team. I'm sure they will be helpful.
Cheers,

Very much this, please.
There are plenty of options out there and yet we _choose_ time after time to use the one that is not open source and has admitted neglecting their security and privacy issues; and effectively forces the usage of their application (I've yet to get into session without it like Thomas pointed out.)
I know Zoom managed to put themselves on top of the hype wave when this COVID-19 mess started, but we should be able to do better than jumping on every single hype train out there.
