We did, it failed us.
I wish someone would have mentioned that sooner.
What problems did people have with mumble-web, and where was the
websockets server running, relative to the mumble server?

I'm sorry, I have to contribute at this point.
I got started with OSS in 2000 when Monta Vista Software (anybody
remember HardHat Linux?) hired me as a FAE.
I was teamed with a salesperson and we were trying to close business
selling an embedded Linux distribution.
Every 6 months or so we would have a sales meeting somewhere and
engineering would share with us the latest product development news,
etc.
Ahead of one of these meetings I happened to be in headquarters (Santa
Clara, CA) and remember very clearly the happy face of this engineering
manager who had just "wasted" (my opinion) 3-5 days generating a
presentation slide-deck with OSS (I don't even know if Open Office was
available at that time) for the meeting, instead of spending two hours
doing same presentation with Powerpoint.
Just because I work with OSS doesn't automatically make me a zealot for
OSS as the only way to go. I choose the correct tool to get the job
done. I always hope for an OSS option, but to this day, Outlook is the
only product Micro$oft got right and I will choose it over any of the
OSS options I have tried as an email client.
I will leave with, think of the contribution to Coreboot source code
this energy could generate instead of spending it on fixing a problem
that doesn't need fixing?
Cheers,
T.mike
