<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>I would like to apologize for a message that may have been rude,
but did not wanted to be at all. Nor was it a message in which I
wanted to direct what to do or be impolite, but a message in which
I wanted to remind of a close link between OA and free software.
And with which I wanted to propose an alternative that is, I
think, more respectful and in accordance with the values that this
list tries to carry.<br>
</p>
<p>I will explain in another message why I truly believe that open
access (that I would rather call libre access but this has been
discussed here if I remember well) and free software go together
and are inseparable.<br>
</p>

said online meeting with jitsi or BigBlueButton the 2 bests
videoconferencing tools that are free software.</div>

<p>Hi jennifer,</p>
<p>I understand.<br>
</p>
<p>My proposal is a working solution. No more operator is needed.
Jitsi is much simpler than zoom. No installation required. Just
point everyone to the URL <a href="https://meet.jit.si/elife"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://meet.jit.si/elife</a>
and voilà. You can try before.</p>
<p>A small question that could help ? How many participants do you
expect ? More than 100 or not ?</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Nicolas</p>
