Anyone interested in helping with linux-wps-office ?
Hi; I recently got asked about WPS Office, a really nice office suite that works on the linuxulator: http://linux.wps.com/ People tend to prefer it over LibreOffice due to its excellent compatibility with the newer formats. So, I updated a basic port for it here: https://people.freebsd.org/~pfg/ports/linux-wps-office.tgz The above passes portlint but I really don't know well how linuxulator ports should work. Open questions: - Does the RPM stuff figure out the right PREFIX? In order words, is the path OK? - Do I have to add a softlink so the program can be executed? - What to do about desktop icons. - I still have to figure out what to do about fonts, if anything. I would be grateful if someone would play with it, provide feedback, or even take over as maintainer. Cheers, Pedro. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

As much more of the world goes into lock down & social distancing, ie
not meeting friends at the pub / restuarant etc on Saturday night
etc, BBC has shown some social groups have arranged a matrix of 10
to 20 faces from cameras on each of 10 to 20 screen, so groups can
chat virtualy, & drink localy @ home.
That needs servers. Doubtless there are big commercial firms offering,
but if some of us think it may be interesting adding such software
to our FreeBSD servers for use by friends, Any reccomendations what
to add from ports/ ?
Might it all be in https://www.freebsd.org/ports/multimedia.html
or more likely scattered ? Keywords to search with ?
What about client apps on android, apple & MS
('cos most friends are non tech & dont run BSD or Linux PCs etc)
What about bandwidth per user, dont want to impact server hosts.
If most of this has been asked before, an URL to a FAQ would be fine thanks.

Hi Julian,
A few of us are sorting our a couple of test/eval instances of NextCloud
Talk and Riot.IM with Matrix for AV/conferencing for various use-cases
including FreeBSD community oriented stuff.
Feel free to hit us up off-list if you'd like more info or be in that loop

IMHO, anything that requires _users_ of a service to download or
install software on their machines to use a (video) conferencing
service is too heavy on requirements already.
People in my circles (both professionally and privately) are using
Whereby https://whereby.com/ with good results.
We will see how good it holds up if traffic increases exponentially,
but for now the service has been flawless.
So if you are building anything, you should aim for something that
works as easily as that.

I second this.
In principle, a sufficiently recent build of Chrome/Chromium browser
might do the trick,
jitsi meet (javascript-based, IMHO) works in it just fine.

reccomendations of conference / party audio video software ?
Hi ports@
Any reccomendations of conference / social group party chat server software ?
As much more of the world goes into lock down & social distancing, ie
not meeting friends at the pub / restuarant etc on Saturday night
etc, BBC has shown some social groups have arranged a matrix of 10
to 20 faces from cameras on each of 10 to 20 screen, so groups can
chat virtualy, & drink localy @ home.
That needs servers. Doubtless there are big commercial firms offering,
but if some of us think it may be interesting adding such software
to our FreeBSD servers for use by friends, Any reccomendations what
to add from ports/ ?
Might it all be in https://www.freebsd.org/ports/multimedia.html
or more likely scattered ? Keywords to search with ?
What about client apps on android, apple & MS
('cos most friends are non tech & dont run BSD or Linux PCs etc)
What about bandwidth per user, dont want to impact server hosts.
If most of this has been asked before, an URL to a FAQ would be fine thanks.
