It would be nice to have an initial short meeting or three in different
timezones like the fediverse unconference to judge the interest maybe ? As
that worked well.

Seeing as Zoom cost for more than an hour is anyone able to host an open
source equivalent meetings server like :-
  - https://jitsi.org/
  - https://bigbluebutton.org/

I do prefer an open source solution, but zoom would be okay if price is not
a variable also just for the initial meeting as it can be shorter.

We can do a https://www.eventbrite.com/ event like the fediverse
unconference did. Dunno if we want to do three timezones or not. I
generally stay up for East or West Coast Time as I am in the UK.
