[BLU/Officers] BLU Jitsi meeting on Friday, March 27 at 7:00 PM?

[John Abreau]

I'd like to try another Jitsi test, this time with more than a day's
notice. Jerry and I were the only ones who could make it this evening.

Who's available for Friday, March 27, 2020 at 7:00 pm?

If Friday is no good, I'm busy on Monday and Tuesday, so the next available
evening for the test would be Wednesday, April 1.

We'd particularly like Federico to participate, so he can do a brief dry
run of the talk he had planned for April 15. If we can get the logistics
worked out in time, I'd like to hold Federico's talk as originally planned
on April 15. There's an option to livestream the meeting to youtube
directly from within jitsi, which means we should be able to continue our
monthly meetings even without a physical meeting space.

I figure 5 minutes of powerpoint should be enough to get a feel for the
logistics of doing a presentation.

Jerry and I tested jitsi together for a few minutes, and it worked well. We
were able to see and hear each other reasonably well, with a small amount
of noise.

There was an option to blur one's background, which I tried, and it worked
well.

We tested sharing a powerpoint presentation in libreoffice, and that worked
fine.

We tested recording the meeting to dropbox, and that also went well.
