We could also break up into mini-sessions based on language pairs or fields. By the way, do you know what platform is being used, i.e. Zoo... See more

Hi Wellmiya,

at the time of the powwow you should reload the powwow's page, and a button to join the room will appear on the screen. The virtual powwow will occur on this same page. It's not needed any external tool

See you
Ezequiel
