[Discuss] LibrePlanet is on this weekend -- online, free

[Cecilia Vargas]

 hi rb
I have nothing to do with LibrePlanet. I volunteered last year but this year I did not because I moved and my internet connection is much slower now. I truly enjoyed it last year.

Last year there were no technical glitches at all. Hard to believe. I don't know what happened this year. I just notice that some of the people organizing the conference have changed. So perhaps that's why this year the tech is not working properly.

 From IRC:

If anyone has the funding and skill for exactly that, it would be them





Ouch.

This is mostly unwatchable due to buffering, etc.
