* Adds package that can configure using turnserver for jitsi-meet. Activates http2 on the nginx host and uses the alpn send with the web requests to multiplex traffic to be served as web of proxied to the turn server. It needs nginx at least v1.13.10. Adds turncredentials module from Philipp Hancke, with small modification (all int values for hosts need to be strings/tostring()) in order to be able to use the module with prosody 0.11. * Moves loading of stream after loading stream module (50-..). * Leaves DISABLE_TCP_HARVESTER to be handled by jvb. * Fixes comments. * Properly detect first time coturn install and configure it. * Handles upgrading from jetty serving web. * Does not create jvb user if already exists. * Fixes let's encrypt and adds turnserver handling. * Enables use of turn server in config.js if available. * Adds a check whether prosody config exists. There are cases where deployments can still have configured prosody in the main prosody config in /etc/prosody.
Jitsi Meet - Secure, Simple and Scalable Video Conferences
Jitsi Meet is an open-source (Apache) WebRTC JavaScript application that uses Jitsi Videobridge to provide high quality, secure and scalable video conferences. Jitsi Meet in action can be seen at here at the session #482 of the VoIP Users Conference.
The Jitsi Meet client runs in your browser, without installing anything on your computer. You can try it out at https://meet.jit.si .
Jitsi Meet allows very efficient collaboration. Users can stream their desktop or only some windows. It also supports shared document editing with Etherpad.
Installation
On the client side, no installation is necessary. You just point your browser to the URL of your deployment. This section is about installing a Jitsi Meet suite on your server and hosting your own conferencing service.
Installing Jitsi Meet is a simple experience. For Debian-based system, following the quick-install document, which uses the package system. You can also see a demonstration of the process in this tutorial video.
For other systems, or if you wish to install all components manually, see the detailed manual installation instructions.

Embedding in external applications
Jitsi Meet provides a very flexible way of embedding in external applications by using the Jitsi Meet API.
Security
WebRTC does not (yet) provide a way of conducting multi-party conversations with end-to-end encryption. Unless you consistently compare DTLS fingerprints with your peers vocally, the same goes for one-to-one calls. As a result, your stream is encrypted on the network but decrypted on the machine that hosts the bridge when using Jitsi Meet.
The Jitsi Meet architecture allows you to deploy your own version, including all server components. In that case, your security guarantees will be roughly equivalent to a direct one-to-one WebRTC call. This is the uniqueness of Jitsi Meet in terms of security.
The meet.jit.si service is maintained by the Jitsi team at 8x8.
Security issues
We take security very seriously and develop all Jitsi projects to be secure and safe.
If you find (or simply suspect) a security issue in any of the Jitsi projects, please send us an email to security@jitsi.org.
We encourage responsible disclosure for the sake of our users, so please reach out before posting in a public space.
