Is anyone using www/jitsi-meet?

[Stephan Lichtenauer]

Hi Arthur,

probably you have already set it up meanwhile, but if not and you are 
using pot (pkg install pot) as jail management tool:

I have uploaded a pot flavour/image on 
https://potluck.honeyguide.net/blog/jitsi-meet-nomad/ that should allow 
creating a running jitsi-meet instance in a jail within a few minutes.

This is all in its early stages though, so if it doesn't, feel free to 
complain :)

Best regards

Stephan
