Also they ship a whole bunch of libraries without any licenses. For sure there is Apache and BSD code in there. I guess somebody could write Boston to the the GPL licenses, but the other libraries are totally a no-go without licenses. Are they using the "commerical" version of Qt? Or maybe they just got liberal with it like they did the other stuff? I think the commercial version is different than normal people have, if not now then soon. -- Waitman Gobble ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Re: Working on Zoom port
Hi Matthias, From personal experience, receiving Zoom video in conferences with native www/chromium and the web interface works perfectly fine and has for some time (at least the last year). I think, but don't recall if I personally tried it, that mic support is fine as well. Audio playback is fine. Unfortunately, until recently, the webcam support in our chromium port was disabled; it is restored in the '80.mumble.163_1' version of the port. There have been mixed reports of success (or not) with webcams in chromium after 163_1; it works ok for some people and there are flickering issues for others. I don't have a supported webcam easily available to test, but would appreciate more data (either "it works for me," or "it doesn't, in this way") in PR 245505 ( https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=245505 ). So, it may work well; it may only work half-duplex for video. Try it out! Firefox support may be better; I'm not familiar with the status of our Firefox port. Best regards, Conrad P.S., the web interface only offers a subset of the full functionality, so I believe the efforts to port the linux binary client are valuable. Still, the web interface works well enough that it might be an option. It's what I use at my day job.
