| | 58 | <p>by <a href="https://bndl.org"><b>bandali</b></a> |
| | 59 | on March 20, 2021 <small>(last update: March 21, 2021) |
| | 60 | (also in <a href="libreplanet-2021.txt">plain text</a>)</small></p> |
| | 61 | |
| | 62 | <p>I am giving my very first |
| | 63 | <a href="https://libreplanet.org/2021/">LibrePlanet</a> talk today on |
| | 64 | March 20th. I will be talking about |
| | 65 | <a href="https://jami.net">Jami</a>, the GNU package for universal |
| | 66 | communication that respects the freedoms and privacy of its users. |
| | 67 | I'll be giving an introduction to Jami and its architecture, sharing |
| | 68 | important and exciting development news from the Jami team about |
| | 69 | <a href="https://jami.net/together-the-new-version-of-jami-and-a-new-step-forward/">rendezvous |
| | 70 | points</a>, <a href="https://jami.biz/jams-user-guide">JAMS</a>, |
| | 71 | the <a href="https://jami.net/plugins-sdk">plugin SDK</a>, |
| | 72 | <a href="https://jami.net/swarm-introducing-a-new-generation-of-group-conversations">Swarm |
| | 73 | chats</a>, and more; and how these features each help empower users to |
| | 74 | communicate with their loved ones without sacrificing their privacy or |
| | 75 | freedom.</p> |
| | 76 | |
| | 77 | <p>Here is the abstract for my talk, also available on the |
| | 78 | <a href="https://libreplanet.org/2021/speakers/#4285">LibrePlanet |
| | 79 | 2021's speakers</a> page: |
| | 80 | |
| | 81 | <blockquote> |
| | 82 | <p>Jami is free software for universal communication that respects the |
| | 83 | freedoms and privacy of its users. Jami is an official GNU package |
| | 84 | with a main goal of providing a framework for virtual communications, |
| | 85 | along with a series of end-user applications for audio/video calling |
| | 86 | and conferencing, text messaging, and file transfer.</p> |
| | 87 | |
| | 88 | <p>With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home has |
| | 89 | become the norm for many workers around the world. More and more |
| | 90 | people are using videoconferencing tools to work or communicate with |
| | 91 | their loved ones. The emergence of these tools has been followed by |
| | 92 | many questions and scandals concerning the privacy and freedom of |
| | 93 | users.</p> |
| | 94 | |
| | 95 | <p>This talk gives an introduction to Jami, a free/libre, truly |
| | 96 | distributed, and peer-to-peer solution, and explains why and how it |
| | 97 | differs from all other existing solutions and how it empowers |
| | 98 | users.</p> |
