-<p>I am giving my very first
-<a href="https://libreplanet.org/2021/">LibrePlanet</a> talk today on
-March 20th. I will be talking about
-<a href="https://jami.net">Jami</a>, the GNU package for universal
-communication that respects the freedoms and privacy of its users.
-I'll be giving an introduction to Jami and its architecture, sharing
-important and exciting development news from the Jami team about
-<a href="https://jami.net/together-the-new-version-of-jami-and-a-new-step-forward/">rendezvous
-points</a>, <a href="https://jami.biz/jams-user-guide">JAMS</a>,
-the <a href="https://jami.net/plugins-sdk">plugin SDK</a>,
-<a href="https://jami.net/swarm-introducing-a-new-generation-of-group-conversations">Swarm
-chats</a>, and more; and how these features each help empower users to
-communicate with their loved ones without sacrificing their privacy or
-freedom.</p>
-
-<p>Here is the abstract for my talk, also available on the
-<a href="https://libreplanet.org/2021/speakers/#4285">LibrePlanet
-2021's speakers</a> page:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
-<p>Jami is free software for universal communication that respects the
-freedoms and privacy of its users. Jami is an official GNU package
-with a main goal of providing a framework for virtual communications,
-along with a series of end-user applications for audio/video calling
-and conferencing, text messaging, and file transfer.</p>
-
-<p>With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home has
-become the norm for many workers around the world. More and more
-people are using videoconferencing tools to work or communicate with
-their loved ones. The emergence of these tools has been followed by
-many questions and scandals concerning the privacy and freedom of
-users.</p>
-
-<p>This talk gives an introduction to Jami, a free/libre, truly
-distributed, and peer-to-peer solution, and explains why and how it
-differs from all other existing solutions and how it empowers
-users.</p>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>I have been an attendee of LibrePlanet for some years, and am very
-excited to be giving my first ever talk at LibrePlanet 2021 this year!
