Hello

Quick answer so that you have the answer rapidly

We avoid posting zoom links publicly for two reasons
1) to avoid zoom bombing
2) we had to change the zoom link soon before an event in the past, and it is a pain when the link was shared in many places...
So best to favor few posting places. 

The link will be shared by email once you register to the event on meta. I do not know when Ashioma will post it, probably tomorrow morning ? 
And the link will probably be added to the event page soon before the event in case you did not get the email or for those who did not put an email address to their wiki account (which I advise doing anyway...)

Zoom bombing still happens. There was a tough reminder a few weeks ago to some collegues from another usergroup.

Hello Ashioma,

Thanks again for reminding me about the meeting today. So there's no link to the direct the meeting in the email? Best wishes and looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards

Bashir.
