I've dug around a bit, and also cant find anything to suggest that they are open sourcing any parts of their solution, or anything resembling bjn providing development or support for existing open source technology components. Their own java classes are using namespace "vc.bjn", and googing that doesnt lead to anything. Here is their recent github organisation: https://github.com/BlueJeansNetwork This looks like an older one: https://github.com/bluejeansnet And here is the only use of "vc.bjn" in github, by an employee https://github.com/Aldaviva/tailor Other employees have "operations"-like repos https://github.com/sczizzo If the organisation is a credible contributor to open source, I havent found it yet. I hope that WMF included "open sourciness" in their product selection criteria & evaluation, so their should be some document describing how BJN is contributing to open source. It would be great if that can be shared. > It's being used mostly for larger meetings because a) it has a larger limit > for number of participants than Google Hangout and b) it seems to be more > open than Google Hangout. >... > Can't answer on if anybody's paying anything as I don't know, but > personally I would hope we are helping to fund their open source > development. ;) If BNJ isnt actually open source, here is an open source solution that we could use and help fund as required (e.g. buying their commercial offerings so that WMF Engineering/Ops doesnt need to support it) http://bigbluebutton.org/ -- John Vandenberg _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
