Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: ?Community Zoom?

[Thomas Mead (thomas.d.mead]

We at Washington Commons have been using a single Zoom account for the
community very successfully.  I won't try to lead you through the process,
but you can use a feature called "claim host" which allows anyone to start
a session that has been reserved (but not necessarily started) without the
account owner present.  Anyone with a proper passcode can "claim host" to
that session and proceed as the host.  I believe the account owner has to
set this up, but once that's done it is very simple.  Follow up through the
Zoom documentation to see what's involved.  Good luck,  Tom
