Re: [PLUG] COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19)

I used to have an Apache Meetings server up but since most of might clients are on Google infra they use Hangouts Meet (or the consumer Hangouts which hasn't gone away just yet) I took it down awhile back.

There are a couple other options, too! The F/OSS ones off the top of my
head are:

https://jitsi.org/jitsi-meet/

https://github.com/ossrs/srs
(https://medium.com/@yenthanh/setup-a-rtmp-livestream-server-in-15-minutes-with-srs-1b0046c77267)
(this is handy in that we can just connect directly to the stream with
RTMP with VLC, and use IRC for interaction)


A bit overpowered for our use, but also:

https://bigbluebutton.org/

and Moodle has a livestreaming plugin (I've never used it, YMMV)

https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_livestreaming


There's of course also Twitch, but I think it'd be cooler if we self-hosted.


Relatedly, I wish I had a presentation put together already on
telecommuting since I've been doing it for 9 or 10 years now, but here's
a link dump:

https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/all-remote/guide/
https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/telecommuting/ (for you company
policy-makers/C-levels on the list)
and https://twitter.com/chris_herd is a huge advocate for it-
occasionally offers some helpful advice.
