BigBlueButton 2.6.0-alpha.3 released!

[Anton Georgiev]

We are pleased to announce BigBlueButton 2.6.0-alpha.3!

This alpha iteration of BigBlueButton 2.6 includes numerous new features and updates to existing ones. It introduces autogenerated live closed captions (via third party service) (disabled by default).
Note that it runs on Ubuntu Focal (20.04)

BigBlueButton 2.6-dev is under active development. While we don’t recommend setting it up in a production environment, we do encourage administrators to try out the build with others and give us feedback on our bigbluebutton-dev mailing list.

Link to installation command / instructions / features : https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.6/new.html

All fixes from BigBlueButton 2.5.x are here up to and including v2.5.5.

Hi Ali,

> Should I create an issue in github?

Yes, the first would go to the GreenLight issue tracker, the remaining three to the BigBlueButton issue tracker.

Hi,

I have installed BigBlueButton 2.6.0-alpha.3 and everything seems working fine.

I noticed that when full-screen mode is used the STYLES is not working, whereas it is working fine when exiting fullscreen

Regards,

Saen
