This release candidate iteration of BigBlueButton 2.6 contains multiple whiteboard improvements and other updates to existing features. Note that we included upgrades of components' dependencies (check for fix(sec) in the release notes).
We are also in the bug-fixing/documentation phase for enabling video format of recordings - there is a new optional package bbb-playback-video and the video format that can be added in /usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/bigbluebutton.yml. We are aware of several issues still in this area, so we are not yet announcing it as complete but you can see evidence of the activity in this iteration.
Also note that we have recently merged the sizeable changes in bbb-install-2.6.sh "Always install a local TURN server and share port 443 #579" bigbluebutton/bbb-install#579 -- so this is likely going to be your first time with this specific setup. Feedback is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks to the community members who provided feedback to the earlier 2.6 releases!
The full release notes are here:

Users wanting to install an external coturn would manually have to install and configure one moving forward? Or is there a helper script to build external turn configured to work with BBB ?
Assuming this would only by larger deployments, maybe manual documentation is sufficient and it does not confuse the install for first time users which is main purpose of bbb-install

Stephen
