Dear GWS members,

We will be holding our next telecon on Tuesday, December 12 at 20:00 UTC.
This is 07:00 in Sydney, 21:00 in most of Europe, and 15:00 in the eastern
US, but please check your area against UTC to be sure.

The topics of discussion will include, but aren't limited to:
    - Items listed in the GWS Roadmap (
http://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/IvoaGridAndWebServices)
    - GWS supporting technologies, such as containers, Kubernetes, A&A
protocols, etc...
    - VOSpace implementation idea sharing

The telecons are informal and you are welcome to join and just listen in.
 If you have something in particular you'd like to discuss, you can simply
raise it during the meeting and optionally let me know ahead of time.

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.

Regards,
Brian

P.S. 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.
