Atlassian Acquires Jitsi: what it means

by Chad Wallace Hart

Atlassian acquired BlueJimp. BlueJimp runs one of my favorite projects, the Jitsi Video Bridge (JVB) that enables multi-party video calls for WebRTC.

I cover:

  • How does JVB work?
  • Why would Atlassian want Jitsi?
  • What does this mean for the WebRTC Community?
  • Are there alternatives to Jitsi?
  • So, is this a good thing for WebRTC?

See my take on the acquisition and above topics here.
