Re: [96attendees] Recipe to set up Jabber?

I believe getting a free Jabber account is not particularly difficult,
although I agree that it hardly seems like a robust solution.

Maybe it's not beyond imagining an IETF-run jabber server, with account
creation tied to registration to one event.

Bit of a fiddle to find a web browser that works on your OS of choice, but Firefox seemed to work best (i.e. supported more of the standards on which meet echo is based) than the others for OSX, though others reported Chrome working for them. It’s a lot less fiddly than Jabber. Just follow the links for the meeting you are attending. Do not be frightened to ask others doing the same for help, because help will be forthcoming.
