Hello,

Please, can some kind soul enlighten me a bit how this (zooom.us) works
from a technical point of view. The background of my question, and I've
never used zoom before, is that my son receives via mail MS OutLook
invitations (due to the closing of his misuc shool for Corona virus) and
if I open them on my Windows business laptop, it downloads
for every new session some piece(s) of software, which is then executed 
and establishes an audio/video session with his teacher.

How this works exactly a how this is supposed to work on FreeBSD?

Thanks

	matthias
