Hi all,

Good news for all of us, who use Zoom: the new version, 5.3 (out today),
has finally enabled a new Breakout rooms option which allows participants
to move among breakout rooms.

That has removed the biggest roadblock towards hosting OST events in Zoom
(there used to be a workaround, but it had serious issues).

Technically it's very simple, when creating BRs, you just select the option
"Let participants chose the room" + all participants must refresh to
version 5.3. That's all...

There is further room for improvement, e..g participants joining via mobile
app cannot move among breakout rooms, but it's a minor issue compared to
the big breakthrough...

BR,

Csaba Lengyel
