I proofread the email several times and still managed to miss an important
point:
This installation is not large and currently, it wouldn't be able to handle
100 people. It worked fine with 10 people in a meeting but not much more
than that. So please be mindful in using this resource.

Hey,
"Wikimedia Meet" [0] (
https://meet.wmcloud.org), is a project in
Wikimedia CloudVPS for Wikimedians to meet virtually instead of using
commercial services like Zoom which might have security and privacy
implications [1][2]. Currently it's a jitsi (
jitsi.org) installation.
If you want to just use/test it, let me know and I create you a user and
password. You can share the username and password with anyone you want to
meet but please do not post it publicly. In your email you can also give me
your desired user and password. **Do not reuse any password**. You can also
contact any of the ticketmasters instead of me:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Meet#List_of_ticketmasters
In order to make this project more robust, I'm looking for Ticketmasters
too, Ticketmasters create accounts for others (It doesn't require any
technical knowledge, you fill a form in web for others)
If you want to help maintaining it (which would be greatly appreciated)
let me know and I give you the needed access. I put the technical
documentation in
mediawiki.org [3]. There are several bits you can help
with, like puppetizing it, scalability, observability, improving
authentication, trying to see if BBB can be used as well, and so much more.
You can find the tickets in the phabricator board and assign a ticket to
yourself if you feel like helping out.
