Thanks, Cullen and Cisco! This is useful and if school/daycares shut down, a free option like this will come in handy for my son's daycare to run circle time and keep up the kids Spanish. It may only be for a short period of time daily, but this could be a very helpful option to keep some sense of normalcy for them and to see their friends/teachers.
Best regards,
Kathleen

Thanks for the explanation.
I don't really want to speak out for or against zoom, as i don't really care
that much. I was more interested in having a bit of fun in a nerd
conversation about appropriate use of terminology here, but the list is
a bit too large to continue that branch of the thread. Hope we can continue
in person @IETF107, CoVid-19 permitting.
Cheers
