Dear GWS,
The next telecon will be on February 6, 16:00 UTC. Many thanks to those
who attended the one last week. Minutes can been viewed on the GWS wiki
page: http://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/IvoaGridAndWebServices
Connection information is below. We hope to see you there. I will send
out a reminder closer to the event.
Cheers,
Brian

The meeting will use the "Vidyo" video conferencing system. We have a
dedicated room setup for these meetings at the link below:

=fGdlHcqZBXghafbA7BY1VHCmSs
Please join as a guest by entering your name and pressing 'Join'. Feel
free to use this room to test your Vidyo installation before the meeting.
It will require you to install a desktop client or browser plugin, so I
highly recommend doing such a test.
Although we have found Vidyo to be an excellent tool for handling a large
number of participants in a telecon, it has a few quirks:
- For those using Ubuntu, there may be some problems with the install
process. If so, please refer to this post:: http://askubuntu.com/qu
estions/766615/how-to-install-libqt4-core-and-libqt4-gui-on-ubuntu-16-04
- To connect to the talk - first start up your Vidyodesktop client. It
will show entry fields VidyoPortal, Username, Password. Ignore these
fields and click directly on the URL link provided in this email. A new
Vidyo window will pop up where you enter your name and click on the Connect
button.
