@fbartels I know both "alternatives". Venueless is in my understanding more an app for conferences. But a good one. I will give it a try for one of my next conferences. gather.town is not for self-hosting. workadventu.re was the tool they used at rc3 (the virtual chaos computer congress in 2020).

[girish]

@luckow I am in Works out to 9am PST for me. Good start to the long weekend (president's day here on 15th Feb)

[atridad]

Might be able to attend... its 2AM on the Saturday in my timezone.

[nebulon]

Super curious how it will work out, so far I've only played with their demo

[ruihildt]

Also interested! And it's free software, it's just a question of time before there's a new cloudron app request.

[thetomester13]

@luckow sounds neat! I believe that works out to be noon EST, so I'll try and make it, but might be mid-lunch at the same time what shall we expect for this session?

When: this Friday Feb. 12 18:00 CET/UTC+1 check time in your timezone

Where: https://play.workadventure.cloudron.io

Important: use https and not http. I have not found out how the automatic redirection works.

The workadventure instance is up and running. I have installed it gdpr compliant. No log files, no personal data. Same for the included jitsi instance. Both instances are running in german datacenters. Sorry, if you have latency issues. That's normal if you join from a different continent

The "hallway tracks" are build via WebRTC with up to 4 people. You can disable your cam & mic to not interact with other people. If you join a WebRTC session, be aware that you share your IP address with the other people. If you have trouble to connect via WebRTC it's mostly a problem with your firewall or network. Try out, if you can use mic & cam in jitsi rooms from inside workadventure.

Currently, workadventure is not accessible. Not for the blind and not for smartphone or tablet users. Sorry for that.
But you can join the jitsi rooms directly. If we decide to have a more formal meetup with talks, we will post the links in this thread.

As there is no formal agenda yet, please step in and offer something if you like. A lightning talk, something with music or dance, a live cooking session or a discussion on a Cloudron topic. We can set up the agenda directly in workadventure. Let's start with this topic in the kitchen around 18:15 (UTC+1)

The direct link to the kitchen is: https://jit.serv210107.safeserver.de/office-map-kitchen

@luckow Excited to attend! I messed up my timezone maths but it looks like you're 8 hours ahead of me so it'll be 10AM for me. I might be in and out of the meetup depending on how busy work is but thankfully I work from home

Me too! Indeed, I'm in there now having a look around!

Edit: and I think @nebulon just popped in too, but then he disappeared.

[nebulon]

@jdaviescoates ah indeed I was just running around for a few seconds, but had no video/audio on

[d19dotca]

Was in there for about 10 minutes, had to leave to my full-time job as I had a meeting starting, haha. Very cool stuff! Love the idea of that app. Was nice to briefly meet some of you guys.

[jdaviescoates]

@d19dotca yes was great to briefly see you @nebulon @luckow and @girish - and fun! What a great app. Looking forward to tomorrow!

[atridad]

Not entirely certain who I bumped into but I was in there for a moment. This is a pretty cool app. Only complaint is the character limit for names is quite restricted... lol

[atridad]

Also I have a BBB instance I use for meetings with client that I can provide access to if we need something for future events. Its on the 3 core 4 GB shared instance with Hetzner so I am unsure about capacity but it should be ok?

It was me!

Yeah, I've also got an account on https://meet.coop too who have dedicated (I think) servers in Canada and Germany (yes, Hetzner). It's what @thetomester13 has been using for the recent app packaging "events"

But the more the merrier! I'd be interested to test how your instance compares the theirs

Are you using the Cloudron Greenlight app as the front end?

[atridad]

@jdaviescoates yeah the cloudron green light app

[hexbin]

Kitchen meeting ... will you be cooking?

[luckow]

[kaxline]

Is there a good way to keep in touch with people who were at the meeting today? I found some people on the forum here but wasn't sure who was who in some cases.

It was fun! Thanks!

[d19dotca]

Sorry I couldn't make it to the meetup today, but glad I was able to at least meet a couple of you yesterday. Love that group photo of you guys

[atridad]

@kaxline it is tough because it has a rather short character limit, but ideally we could just all use our usernames on there. Luckily my username is my first and last name :^)

[d19dotca]

@kaxline You can use the Chat feature in the forum here probably, may be the best way to stay in touch for things that don't need to be it's own forum post.

[Lonkle]

Ah, I got the time wrong on this, I missed the hang. Hope it was a good one, 6.1 is an amazing release!

[scooke]

Looked great. Sorry I couldn't make it, I was swimming in the ocean with my kids.

[murgero]

I cant believe I forgot about this! When is the next one?

[robi]

wasn't it recorded?

[atridad]

@robi I don’t believe this one was. Someone correct me if I’m wrong

[nebulon]

I don't believe it was recorded, not from our side at least. Anyways given the style of the meeting, it probably could only be recorded from a person's point of view

[JOduMonT]

it is possible to make the next one more global hour centric aka noon or 1:00PM UTC+1
so in NorthAmerica it would be morning
and South-East Asia it would be evening
instead of midnight
