As the number of projects and and participants on the Edgeryders.eu platform grows, there is a risk that new arrivals as well as people who have been away for some time are lost. Also it is good that members of the community meet other members who they do not know in person. So I suggest that we set up a moderated weekly group video conference call, record the sessions and post them online in the (from now on) weekly blogposts about what is going on and where people can jump in to help each other.
As the unfolding PRISM scandal is reminding us, we need to move away from free commercial alternatives and set up our own, self hosted solutions. One proposal is Apache OpenMeetings. Another is Mozillas BigBluebutton. I prefer the second as it also doubles up as a tool for community workshops, building online courses etc. But as always, they who do the work call then shots 
Any volunteers? Leave a comment below so others in the community who are interested in either open alternatives to the software we love to hate or videoconferencing in particular can find and use whatever solution we run with.
