Video conferencing with Jitsi

Coincidentally I had to look at what it takes to set up a Jitsi server by hand a few days ago (someone was asking for help doing that), and it seems surprisingly painless. You need an XMPP server with a HTTPS/BOSH reverse proxy — an existing IM-only setup would work — and then Jitsi plugs in as three extra daemons: two XMPP components and one HTTP API.

The official docs make it sound a bit scarier than it actually is: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/manua...
