I seem to have misunderstood the purpose of the article then. Apologies. If the article intends to focus only on videoconferencing, then I think pretty much everything is already there. Perhaps we should only add "simplescreenrecorder" which lets one to record the whole screen with audio. This is very useful when one doesn't want to connect with services like Dropbox or Google drive to record. I am not sure whether this should go in the document, but if this sounds useful, I request Ravi to include it at appropriate place.
Thanks! Would 18th Feb work?
Yes.
I had asked some people I know about this and some of them have asked me one more week.
I suggest you to discuss with them and set a common deadline.
even for me at least 2-3 days more will allow me to add things which we have been using (Moodle, Nextcloud, simplescreenrecorder, xournal, signalapp) that have not been mentioned in the document so far.
The article focuses on video conferencing only and therefore these are not mentioned. We can write separate articles on other issues.
If it is fine, I would also like to include a 2-3 line statement from our head that can go under "examples" or a similar heading.
In my opinion, this is a good idea and it shows others that institutes can run fully free software. Probably, the statement of your head can be a statement in some future article. We can publish a separate article advising educational institutes to run free software. Your department can be included as an example. This article, as I stated, was to point to especially educational institutes to avoid Zoom and other nonfree software for videoconferencing. But that was just my proposal. Upon discussing with others, we reached the conclusion to write a general article on videoconferencing, suggesting alternatives and how to judge them for freedom. Therefore, urging educational institutions to reject all nonfree software can be a different article.
