[Dune-devel] Online developer meeting: 2021-01-08 and 2021-01-22

[Simon Praetorius]

Hi Markus,

Jitsi is not usable for more than let's say 5 people simultaneously. 
Neither the public meet.jitsi.si nor a locally hosted instance. In half 
of the sessions it simply does not work at all. This is due to the heavy 
video load that is during the semester time in the universities. There 
is also the DFN video-conference solution - not stable either.

Best,
Simon
