Jitsi Project codebases so far: o Jitsi Desktop aka 'Jitsi' aka 'the SIP Communicator': a VoIP and instant messaging application. This was the first project, and is now deemed mature and community-maintained. o Jitsi Meet: videoconferencing server suite leveraging IETF's WebRTC protocol suite. Components include: o Jitsi Videobridge2: media server engine, specifically a WebRTC-compatible video router or 'SFU' (Selective Forwarding Unit). Jitsi Meet always includes at least one of these. o jicofo (JItsi COnference FOcus): "focus" component required to run Jitsi Meet conferences. o Jigasi: Optional SIP telephony gateway for Jitsi Videobridge2. o Jibri: broadcaster and recorder used for saving video call recordings and streaming to YouTube Live o Jidesha: Chrome/Chomium and Firefox extension for calendar integration (formerly also did screensharing). o jitsi-meet-electron: Bespoke desktop client for Jitsi Meet, built atop the Electron engine. o jitsi-meet-electron-utils: what it says on the tin o lib-jitsi-meet: Low-level JavaScript API for providing a customized UI for Jitsi Meet. o docker-jitsi-meet: necessary tools to run a Jitsi Meet stack on Docker using Docker Compose. o jitsi-slack: Slack chat/direct messaging integration to enable starting video conferences from Slack and easily inviting Slack members to conferences. There are _lots more_, but those are the major ones. Point is, the term "Jitsi" is ambiguous, and is not the correct name for Jitsi Meet, at all. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
