Dear all, I'm looking forward to participating in tomorrow's SPDX General Meeting.
As Phil Odence has just mentioned moving the meeting to an alternative platform, I'd like to suggest using a free and open source platform, such as Jitsi, for the meeting. Jitsi is free of charge and does not require registration or signing up to participate. It would be fitting for SPDX to use free and open source software for meetings, and I can personally vouch for the reliability of Jitsi. It has worked well in all of the calls I've used it for, which must number over a hundred now. This includes calls of tens of participants, as well as a particularly memorable meeting that ran continuously for over 9 (!) hours. We could use the main server (which as I mentioned is free of charge), or indeed we could just ask nicely to use one of any number of Jitsi servers hosted by various FOSS organisations - or, even run our own! :) If you like this idea, I'd suggest that we meet a little earlier than the scheduled time in a Jitsi room. If anyone has trouble with Jitsi then we can just hop over to the existing platform. If there no hitches, we can continue on Jitsi! I'm more than happy to answer any questions anyone might have; I'll be checking my emails throughout tomorrow. I look forward to hearing what you think of this idea. Best wishes, Sebastian
