=== Meeting Agenda ===

When: Thursday, April 1, 2021\\ 
Time: 19:00\\ 
Where: jitsi video conference (details below)\\ 

== Topics ==

The first part of the meeting will be the Annual General Meeting (AGM). As most
of you know, we are a registered non-profit and we are required to hold an AGM
where we perform elections. Quorum is 15 people and the format is short and
sinmple. This year more so than usual. If you will not be there, make sure you
send a proxy.

After the AGM, we will have our regular talks.

For those new to Linux, John has a talk titled: “Getting the software you want
installed”

After John, Scott will do a talk on building the Raspberry Pi based KVM he
demonstrated at the March meeting as well as why you may want one.

=== Meeting Details ===

The meeting URL is now fixed URL, https://six.linux-ottawa.org and
should be up for connection by 18:30 on meeting nights and will vanish shortly
after the meeting has concluded. The codewords that you need will also be
predictable so that you no longer need the email with them to join. Hopefully
you are on the mailing list so you will know the pattern. If not, it is in the
list archive and you just append it to the meeting URL. Since you will be
joining as anonymous guests, you will not have a username or password. If it
asks for a username and password, it has not been started yet. I will be
attempting to have it running no later than 18:45. It should be online earlier,
but I expect it to be online by then.

=== Rules/Procedures/Common-Sense ===

Video and audio will be disabled when you join. In order to make sure the
experience is a reasonable one for all involved, the presenter will share their
screen-window-whatever they are comfortable with and you will see it quite
clearly. Rather than unmute, pressing your space bar is will unmute your
microphone while pressed, so you can try that to ask questions.  There is also
the chat window, which no longer appears to obscure the rest of the session
(maybe on small monitors?) Feel free to post questions and as opportunity
presents itself and the presenter notices, they will get answered. After the
presentation is completed, feel free to unmute and have a normal voice/video
Q&A.
