Releases: bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton
v3.0.0-alpha.5
In this iteration we have continued to improve the new GraphQL related core components. Various fixes are also included. Below is a list of the pull requests in this iteration, grouped by component.
Note that BigBlueButton 3.0-dev runs on Ubuntu Jammy (22.04).
BigBlueButton 3.0-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.
