When I send around some mails to promote FOSDEM at work and in the 
Belgian SDR meeting, I also added a link to a jitsi-meeting as a 
"virtual visitor cafe".

As, of course, a conference like fosdem is as much about the talks, as 
it is about talking to people you have only seen online that year, .. or 
a random talk with whoever who happens to stand in front or after you in 
the queue of the foodtruck or the coffee-bar.

I do have chosen to send the link to not to many people, as in a 
video-call only one person can speak at the same time.
So it does not make sense to have to many people in the chatroom at the 
same time.


In essence, I think it is a good idea, but you have to 'frame' it in the 
correct format.
