Hi,
Long-time lurker here.
I’d be happy to provide virtual hosting for GTA LUG proceedings and meetings via Zoom or MS Teams. I work at UofT and I believe I can get GTA LUG meetings hosted on our infrastructure.
Alternatively, if we can get sponsored (or have other means/resources available) we could organize a free/libre based solution to hold virtual meetings.
Thoughts?
Evan has already weighed in with availability of a Zoom 'room', which the board has used a fair bit for board meetings, but it's surely a fine thing to have options. Our last board meeting we used the "libre" option, Jitsi, for which Alex has set up a VM. Alex seems to be proposing to spin up an instance of that. I suggest getting in on the conversation about that. To my mind, having more possible solutions is better than having fewer, although we'll need to pick something specific pretty soon :-). -- When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
