To summarise: FSM-LA used BigBlueButton and we used Jitsi; FSM-LA had
rich content (well-organised speakers) and we had prepared none (while

FSM-LA to observe / participate. Our belated apologies, thus.
One thing that I think would be good would be to have a regular meeting
for
repeats of best-of talks from LUGs in the Australia/NZ region. There
are lots
of LUGs having online meetings which have a local flavour and not all
the
talks would work for a large audience.
What do you think?
Thank you Les and Russell for your replies.
I am thinking of a 'Free Software Channel', of sorts, a streaming site
or nexus where the best of what is relevant and current to the cause can
be put on constant cycle as learning content. (Unless such a channel
already exists? - Duckduckgo says no.) A simplified task for small SFD
teams would then be to put learners in front of it on the day. Bigger
teams can be generating fresh content input, as you have just done. As a
regional focus it makes us see further.
So yes, let's collate what's available and give it regularised
screening.
This is at least an idea of a solution for what seems to be declining
awareness of the meaning of freedom and quality in open computing etc.
It is a motivator where, after 17 unmissed years since SFD's start for
local teams, the will to go on with it may in places be waning.
Cheers
