<p>Dear all,</p>
<p>I have been lurking for so long ! Hope you are all well..</p>
<p>Very interested in this thread as we face isolation but very
active communities in need of something other than the zoom Jitsi
skype hype. <br>
</p>
<p>For small scale video chat I use <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://chatb.org">https://chatb.org</a> which is
written by friend in Berlin Jan Gerber. It's fully peer to peer so
each peer has to be able to deliver their own video image and
sound. It's not what you are all looking for but I mention it as
there is no login and it's great for 3 or 4 people. He is keen to
develop it further - it's open source of course. <span

anyone spent any time with <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://openmeetings.apache.org/">https://openmeetings.apache.org/</a> and
is it a candidate you are considering? Looks good but have yet
to try it.</span></p>
<p><span class="code">All round the world people are looking again
at community networks with fresh eyes and appetite</span></p>

I personally find jitsi nicer and more intuitive usability-wise, but
bbb proved more stable and robust with more people participating.
It also gives the option to only listen in.
As for the question how do you conduct a big remote meeting in a
constructive way: it's not easy, but doable with a bit of discipline.
You need an agenda, a facilitator, and for example the shared notes
(like an etherpad) provided by bbb where people who want to say
something write their names down and are then called to speak by the
facilitator. (And it helps when everyone not speaking has muted their
mic).
I hope that was useful for someone xD
Cheers
