but of course it would not provide any interaction between participants.

At last Sunday's London Meetup we discussed the
situation and while not
wanting to seem over cautious (we were of course the dozen who'd decided to
attend). We realised that there was a good chance that the April and even
May meetings might need to go virtual.
Is there a recommended software solution for video/audio conferencing a
dozen to twenty people?
I took part in some not the wikipedia Weekly podcasts almost a decade ago,
but i'm assuming the technology has progressed since then.

Hi,
I believe it likely is too early to make a decision. We have a
professional
team at the WMF monitoring the situation, but the
date is still 5 months
in
the future.
It is reasonable to expect that we may need to make adjustments to the
situation as it develops and in 2-3 months it will be much clearer where
we
stand.
For now, I think it is already fair to say that the WMF leadership is not
shying away from difficult decisions (the summit cancellation, closing
down
the office, canceling international travel for
staff) and clearly
prioritizes our safety.
I trust the judgment of our staff when they communicate clearly that they
are considering all options and will.make a decision in due time.
Best,
Dj "pundit"
