- | * Reduce the size of the quorum for an election. Given how much begging we have had to do in the past to get the 25 names, I want to reduce it to 10. If we can't get 10 people to attend the next AGM in person, then we have little reason to continue as a registered non-profit corp. That is a potential discussion item for the future. We consistently get 10+ people at physical meetings but not always 15. That makes 10 a reasonable number to manage. | + | |

- | This will be our first video meet, so we are going to be less ambitious than usual. | + | |

- | This should keep it manageable. After the representation is finished, I'll stop muting all but the presenter. We can even try enabling video to see how good/bad it is. There will only be the one talk this month, as we don't know how well it will go. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | This format is subject to evolution, as I expect that video conference software will undergo some rapid improvement over the next few months given the demand currently out there. Not that I'm recommending them, but I saw a note that Zoom is currently processing just shy of 280PiB of data/month. I have no idea what services like Netflix and Disney+ are processing, but the demands have gone up considerably. | + | |

- | In June, we may give big blue button a try. That take a little more effort to install than jitsi, so I went with the easier of the two for the first attempt. | + | |
+ | Similar to last time, your output 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 supposed to unmute your microphone while pressed, so you can try that to ask questions. There is also the chat window, but when it is active it obscures part of the screen. 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. | ||
