I've never used Zoom in a browser so I don't know how secure that is. I use Zoom for video conferences in which everybody can be active, commenting or even giving a talk about a special subject. I had a talk in Spanish a while ago with about six or even seven hundred persons connected in Europe, South America, North America and possible Asia. So it has to work in a secure way. I just want to make it work in DSL because I like the OS and would use it when there aren't so many connected and it wouldn't be a catastrophe if it failed. In settings where I wouldn't have an assignation and it is more like a discussion. So making Zoom work in DSL for me is because I would like it. I like to use it and actually I've already used it in a production setting since I write a lot and always quote from the internet about the subject at hand. So being able to use a browser (now Firefox) and an office program like Abiword at the same time is enough mostly. But when it comes to IT I'm often like a problem solver that might involve programming or setting up local LMM's. The latter I don't plan to do in DSL though even if I can be made to work well on this laptop. Setting up local LMM's I do on other computers even if I have made that work on this laptop too. So the BOTTOM LINE is that DSL 2024 is YOUR PROJECT and you do as you see fit with it. I'm using it because it is fun and the more I can use it the nicer it would be for me. So, thanks for taking up this project! I'll follow the development closely and I might come with a suggestion but that is all it is, a suggestion.
Kind Regards,
