I'm very interested in this as well. I've grudgingly been using Blackboard
Collaborate for my otherwise free software-driven Wikipedia course.
One thing to look at is Big Blue Button. It's FOSS designed as an
educational webinar platform. I have not looked into it extensively, but
will report back if I do -- and would welcome others' take on it too! (I
believe it requires Flash. Blackboard Collaborate requires Java. I kind of
doubt it's possible to escape this kind of requirement at the present
time...but I always hope to be proven wrong!)

Hi all!
I was recently invited to join a webinar using Fuzebox, and am concerned
about their privacy practices. The particulars: I was given an access link
that went to the inviting party's website and was required to give a full
name and ZIP Code in order to be granted access to the webinar on Fuze. On
the Fuze webinar site itself, I would have had to have downloaded their
proprietary software to my desktop if I desired to stream the webinar and
not supply my phone number. Umm...no thanks.
I'd like to be able to recommend an alternative platform. Any
recommendations, cryptolovelies?
