Re: Suggestion to switch from Zoom to an open source alternative for meetings

Larry Gritz
We're really drafting off the fact that all the ASWF groups (and I assume the rest of the Linux Foundation) use Zoom as their standard for meetings. So really, if this is an important topic, it is one to address at the TAC level or above; there is probably no benefit to each project in the organization trying to go its own way on infrastructure.
I think there is merit to being suspicious of Zoom. They certainly have some embarrassing black marks in their history, as far as security and privacy go. But on the other hand, the eyes of the world are on them now and they have pledged to make that a top priority. We'll see how that goes. But in any case, since the OCIO and other TSC meetings are public by design, I think the worst of the privacy/security concerns mostly don't apply to us. -- lg
