Re: [NTG-context] Regular online meet-up

Reminder: You’re invited to join tomorrow, Tuesday, October 12th, 15:00 CEST (11:00 EDT, 21:00 SGT) at https://lecture.senfcall.de/hen-rbr-rku-oke ConTeXt users of all levels are welcome! There’s no prepared subject/talk/presentation (from my side – feel free to share something). But I guess we will discuss PDF viewers some more... This is meant to be regular, i.e. every second Tuesday of a month. Next time is November 11th. Let’s see how this works out; maybe we need a different day/time. If we become many, it might make sense to offer something regional or language specific... [Howto] * No special software installation required; most modern browsers should work (WebRTC required). * Open the above URL, accept the privacy statement, * enter your name (or anything you want to be known as), * click "join" (or "start" if you’re the first), * click "with microphone", allow your browser to access it, check the audio. (Some strings might be different, I see the German interface, you should get the main language of your browser.) * Your microphone is muted if you join. Activate microphone and/or camera with the buttons at the bottom. * Minimize the default presentation with the "screen" button, bottom right. * If you’d like to share your screen or upload a file, you can make yourself the presenter: Click on your user name, change the setting, then you’ll see the "screen sharing" button beside the camera button; also there’s now "manage presentations" behind the "plus" button. Beware there is only one presenter, so don’t kill someone else’s presentation. [Technical hints] * Sound is usually better if you use a headset (less noise for everyone). * Connection problems are mostly due to low bandwidth or high latency on your side, e.g. with mobile connections. * If audio/video doesn’t work for you, you can still use the text chat. * Screen sharing needs a lot of bandwidth. * You can also join with a regular telephone (audio only, of course), call +49-6151-86275-22 (German landline); then you must enter a PIN that changes every time – if you need it, ask me for it via email. Mute/unmute your microphone with "0". [Netiquette] * Mute your microphone while you’re not talking. * It’s nice to show your face at least when you join. * If there are connection problems, stop camera sharing. * The room is set to “everyone’s a moderator“, I trust you... See you, Hraban

Hi, What is the BigBlueButton “room”? I am interested.

Welcome!

We’re using the facilities of the German charity “Computerwerk Darmstadt e.V.”; the’re very privacy-aware, their free “senfcall.de“ service is based on BigBlueButton (https://bigbluebutton.org). Since I got an account, we can use the same “room” all the time: https://lecture.senfcall.de/hen-rbr-rku-oke I would have published the address later.

...

I hope that the “just finished meeting” was enjoyable, calm, not necessarily reposing😂 and of course fruitful.😁

It was, and very inspiring. Of course, it was also too much information to process (I still can’t wrap my mind around MetaPost, even less LPEG).
