[Coco] Virtual CoCoFEST! On CoCoTALK! Saturday April 18th @ 2:00 PM EDT

[M. David Johnson]

Thank you for the invite. 

However, since Zoom has been routing many of its sessions through servers in China, and since Zoom is currently under investigation by the FBI, I am boycotting Zoom and will not participate in any Zoom sessions of any nature whatsoever, unless overwhelming circumstances force my participation. 

I consider this to be a matter of personal and National honor.

CoCoFEST! May be postponed, but it doesn’t mean we still can’t gather,
virtually at least, and that’s the focus of this weeks’ CoCoTALK! Is to
have a global, virtual CoCoFEST!



If you were planning on attending/exhibiting/vending/presenting/speaking,
we would love to have you join us and share with everyone what you would
have at the FEST!



We’ll be meeting via ZOOM, and a secure, password protected ZOOM link will
be provided to those who’d like to attend.  If you’ve never used ZOOM,
you’ll need to get the client installed from https://zoom.us/



You can do a live presentation, if your setup allows that, even
screen-share something, if needed.  If your technology, schedule,
bandwidth, etc. are not conducive to doing it live, we can coordinate with
you to get your presentation and show it on your behalf.



There are very few reasons or obstacles to participating that we can’t help
you overcome if you’re interested in helping us keep CoCoFEST! Alive this
weekend.



Join us on our CoCo Discord server to discuss https://discord.gg/4J5nHXm or
send an email to cocotalk at cocotalk.live to indicate your interest in
participating, and we can work out the details with you in advance.



The event will stream live, Saturday April 18th @ 2:00 PM EDT on YouTube
and Facebook, you can get links at http://cocotalk.live the primary feed to
YouTube is http://live.cocotalk.live



Let’s not let this weekend and the 40th anniversary of the CoCo go to waste.
