[NTG-context] (ir)regular online meet-up

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

Our usual meet-up date would be March 11, but that’s the begin of 
DANTE’s spring meeting, and I’ll be busy there. You could do it without 
me, but I’d like to move it to next week:

upcoming Wednesday, March 4th, 19:30 CET (UTC+1)

at https://lecture.senfcall.de/hen-rbr-rku-oke
(same, but shorter: https://u.mtxrun.eu/ctxmtg)

ConTeXt users of all levels are welcome!

Looking forward to seeing you,
Hraban


(Same blurb as always:)

[Howto]
* No special software installation required; most modern browsers should 
work (WebRTC required).
* Open the URL above, accept the privacy statement,
* enter your name,
* click "join" (or "start" if you’re the first),
* click "with microphone", allow your browser to access it, check the audio.
* Your microphone is muted if you join. Activate microphone and/or 
camera with the buttons at the bottom.
* Minimize the default presentation with the "screen" button, bottom right.

* If you’d like to share your screen or upload a file, you can make 
yourself the presenter: Click on your user name, change the setting, 
then you’ll see the "screen sharing" button beside the camera button; 
also there’s now "manage presentations" behind the "plus" button.
Beware there is only one presenter at a time, so don’t kill someone 
else’s presentation.

[Technical hints]
* Sound is usually better if you use a headset (less noise for everyone).
* Connection problems are mostly due to low bandwidth or high latency on 
your side, esp. with mobile connections.
* Sometimes leaving and re-entering helps.
* If audio/video doesn’t work for you, you can still use the text chat.
* Screen sharing needs a lot of bandwidth.
* BigBlueButton documentation applies: https://bigbluebutton.org/tutorials/

[Netiquette]
* Please use a name that we recognize from here. Some feel uncomfortable 
with anonymous lurkers.
* Mute your microphone while you’re not talking.
* It’s nice to show your face at least when you join.
* If there are connection problems, stop camera sharing.
* The room is set to “everyone’s a moderator“, I trust you...
