After downloading jitsi and seeing nothing reasonable, I just found there's 
jitsi and jitsi-meet. I think what we need tonight is jitsi-meet

I just now went to the url below and connected to the url and was expecting a 
challenge for a passwd. Instead I was just allowed to click "join meeting". When 
I did, I found I was the only one there. This is the expected result if I've 
joined the correct meeting, but it's also the expected result if I've joined a 
null meeting, so I don't know if I'm doing it right either.
