The Jitsi project was founded almost 20 years ago, under a different name and just for academic purposes. Almost 20 years later, the project could not be in a better shape! It has gone through a name change and several acquisitions by large corporations, while remaining current in the industry and innovating all along. This presentation will take a trip down memory lane and see where Jitsi came from, how it has managed to stick around for so long, and what the future holds.
