Everyone is used to dialing the same meeting each week. Sometimes you don't know you won't be there until just before the meeting but you can find another leader to run the meeting, but I could see trying to track down an lF admin to swap out a license as not working. This being said, I am surprised Zoom doesn't have a better solution. Maybe we can check again on this. Bluejeans is nice in that the meeting owner does not have to be present. The weekly netvirt, hwvtep and genius calls can all start from the first person who dials in. Recordings are started automatically. There are mac, windows and linux (rpm) clients. Other linux distros can use the web client via chrome - as well as any other platform can use chrome. All the meetings have been worldwide from the states to israel to india. Quality has been good. There are audio issues sometimes but those seem to be more on the user side - like laptop mic wrong, speakers feeding back or network bandwidth flapping. > > Best, > Casey > > > > On Fri, Apr 14, 2017 at 2:27 PM, Ryan Goulding <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> The community is somewhat ephemeral in terms of participation.
