Inline..
OM has the huge advantage of being a container, with a lot less to
configure out of the box.

Thanks for the quick docker work!
According to the "Just text on WB", you can create text block and
paste your text in it ...
Good answer on the text block, too. Not sure why I did not think of that..
Current 4.0.0 WB is based on HTML5 canvas and actively uses
WebSockets, you can put text on it, you can add vector graphics, you
will be able to add html as soon as I'll find the way to convert html
to vector graphics ... or you can send me the link to some working
example (we are currently using this http://fabricjs.com/ library)
WRT to HTML 5 canvas, I am not clear on what you mean. I think OM is a
full window SWF flash object running in my browser, right? Are you then
floating a HTML canvas object over that, also in my browser? Then
WebSockets is used between all participants to keep the canvases in
sync? I do not want SVG. I want TEXT! See below..
Typos and grammar!

Sorry about the blasphemy, but this is what I am currently running. :)
It seems very similar, but we can change colors and pen widths. Shrug..
ie <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" id="BigBlueButton"
name="BigBlueButton" tabindex="0" data="BigBlueButton.swf?v=601"
style="position: relative; top: 0.5px;" height="100%" width="30%"
align="middle"><param name="quality" value="high"><param name="bgcolor"
value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param
name="wmode" value="window"><param name="allowscriptaccess"
value="true"><param name="seamlesstabbing" value="true"></object>
Is it possible for the flash object to NOT be the full window? Above it
is 30% width. Can I inject some js into a page, and do whatever I want
in the rest of the viewport? Remove the whiteboard entirely with a new
layout. Keep the user list, the chat, and the video cam parts. Maybe
stack them in a tall and narrow column on the left edge of the browser
Thus Leaving the right area free?
We can skip the iframe entirely this way!
According Flash: unfortunately Flash is currently the only option for
cross platform and cross browser Audio/Video. WebRTC is the way we are
moving BUT it still has cross-browser incompatibilities,
Only Apple IOS devices can not do WebRTC currently. It is supposed to
work later this year. I can skip those students. Plenty of students
with Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android. I can run flash on my PC to
connect to the server. Server broadcasts it to everybody.

It does allow recording, just not automatically, and not on the server..
Again I can still use flash for this if needed.
Right now 4.0.0 will use Flash, and we will start investigation in
following directions:
1) at least remove Flash requirements for attendees i.e. to play user
audio/video using HTML5 <video> tag. The problem here is: <video> tag
does not support "live" streams :(
I think live video is supported now, at least in P2P. Not sure it is
compatible with the OM server.. Bandwidth is cheap here in VN, Huge
competition with the ISP's and FTTH. 35 mbit up/down is 8 USD per
month. I can get all 4 major ISPS, and then build a small router with 4
SFP ports for maybe 1000 usd.
2) Adapt WebRTC for our needs and solve all issues mentioned above
But all this requires time ... "Rome wasn’t built in a day"

No hurry.. I tried the test server, and it looks good, but still not really
what I *WANT*
The new version is still Flash based. I hate flash!
What I want is some html5 with audio and video sharing.
Fallback to flash is ok for audio and video, but it stops there.
Back to the original topic,
What I want is something like this running in the browser:
https://nlp-expo.firebaseapp.com/
https://nlp-expo.firebaseapp.com/expo/uppercase-all-verbs-197792
https://nlp-expo.firebaseapp.com/expo/change-sentence-tense-203483
Then put a toolbar across the top of the screen with "Paste Tense",
Present, Future, Singular nouns, Plural Nouns. I really want to hammer
on the students WRT to Plurals, Tenses, and Articles (a,an, the, etc)
Asian languages do not have these, and they make many mistakes.
SVG is dead. It is not text any more.. I can not edit it, or have js
modify it. I can not change the fonts, colors, etc easily.
also, something like this:
http://pandoc.org/demo/example16b.html#(1)
Students want bigger fonts? OK, they can zoom it, html reflows. PDFs
not so much..
What do I lose with html? Automatic recording, but I can do that
locally. Keeping everybody on the same page.
Sorry, too long..
