BigBlueButton Summit VII: Porto Alegre, Brazil

We just returned back from another great developer summit in Porto Alegre, Brazil. This was our seventh developer summit. The BigBlueButton project holds developer summits every six months to bring the core developers and committers together to review and coordinate development on the project, do code sprints, and enjoy some good meals and company together.

The project has come a long way from it’s first developer summit. Now that we have released BigBlueButton 1.0-beta, looking back to previous summits, we can see how the earlier planning helped us to reach this milestone. At this summit we had the largest number of developers (19 in total) working together on the project.

    • Alexandre Kreismann
    • Anton Georgiev
    • Calvin Walton
    • Chad Pilkey
    • Danny Perrone
    • Felipe Cecagno
    • Fred Dixon
    • Gabriel de Campes
    • Ghazi Triki
    • Leonardo Daronco
    • Lucas Freire
    • Lucas Zawacki
    • Mario Gasparoni Junior
    • Max Doumit
    • Maxim Khlobystov
    • Oleksandr Zhurbenko
    • Oswaldo Acauan
    • Pedro Marin
    • Richard Alam
    Tiago Jacobs

We thank the following organizations for helping make this summit possible:

ICES Corporation

Seneca College

At the end of the summit, the teams made two presentations to the community (using BigBlueButton of course) on the main activities: BigBlueButton core and HTML5 client. For those that missed the live presentations, you can view the recordings below.
