How are we doing with this for Thursday?

From today's call:

• We are currently planning 4 fireside chats that should happen in BBB
  • Oct. 14th 17UTC
  • Oct. 15th 18UTC
  • Oct. 23rd 15UTC
  • Oct. 24th 16 UTC
• streaming yes or no: still figuring this out. We will decide based on registration numbers.
• recording: yes
• registration: yes we will use indico

I've fixed this and uploaded a new version (note the _ at the end of the url to ensure CDNs are delivering the correct version):

I've added some details of this sprint to: https://community.kde.org/Sprints/Meet/2021Virtual

I've created a poll to help us decide on the date https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/AkademyToolsSprint21/

From an attendee PoV:

• having automatic breakout rooms after each talk to text chat with the speaker was nice
• videos being cut off in the middle of sentences automatically was awkward
• integration of the video widget in the matrix client was a very nice idea but every time I wanted to read a message in another chat it meant losing the talk so I ended up not using the integrated talk widget
• it sometimes felt like I was missing parts of the chat conversations. Not sure if this was matrix dropping messages.

How about either the weekend of March 20th, or March 27th 2021?

A date from 18th Feb onwards would suit me best, we want to be post FOSDEM anyway

Did you like the format? Anything we can improve upon?

What software and hardware you used to join meeting? (Browser, Camera, and Microphone)

Did you have any problems with software used? (BigBlueButton and Greenlight)

Sometimes the camera feeds were frozen and I could only unfreeze them by reloading the page

What can be improved in software?

I think it should be possible to see notes and chat at the same time

Was the echo test faster after the first day, also if any one was still having problems with it?

For me it was sometimes faster, sometimes slower without a pattern that I could spot

Our first day was a write-off. The rest worked well.

Currently SIP setup is working for calling the number and entering PIN makes you join the room (note: must be someone in room already with working mic). Pin shown in room motd

Note that they "disappear" from the room, I haven't confirmed whether the actual pads used disappear or not yet
