Was just wondering when the SFD wiki would be updated for 2020. Seems like a good time to discuss SFD 2020 since it was just mentioned in the Document Freedom Day thread.
Just attended a couple of Linux, FLOSS related meetings using Jitsi. I think it would be great this year to host SFD 2020 virtually instead of at our local library. We might even get a bigger turn out. I wasn't impressed with the ability to share slides over Jitsi especially if someone's running it from a mobile device with low bandwidth. However, I have some info/slides I put together on the web for a local tech conference. Could supply the web links for viewing information and slides and have the meeting for SFD via Jitsi. Think it would be fun.
http://www.vcfe.org (Vintage Computer Fest Europe) are also like https://www.softwarefreedomday.org/ looking at various technologies to support virtualising an annual event. Seems to me ( an ex exhibitor at vcfe.org & ex organiser of SFD Munich http://www.berklix.org/sfd/ ) you have similar requirements & could share knowledge, as both want not just small group conferencing per exhibitor stand, but also larger group streaming for lectures, & feedback questions & responses etc. You might want to swap knowledge, join each others lists etc. BTW I have an index of conference software at http://www.berklix.org/meet/ inc. http://www.berklix.org/meet/#jitsi It does not include some technologies a friend is looking at for broadcast streaming, but I'm happy to add URLs if mailed direct.
