Hello all,

indeed, I have tried to run multiple instances of zoom from different
browsers and this doesn't work at all. This is also valid of one runs
zoom as a Web app. The running of an external process, also is blocked
in secure environments that do not allow external software to run, thus
I have found that some people have been unable to access Zoom at work.
FYI Adobe Connect allowed for multiple instances to run, as each were
running in their own browser Window.

I have a feeling that any change to allow for multiple instances of Zoom
to run simultaneously is likely to require for extended re-writing of
the Zoom architecture. In the short to medium term, my way to get around
it is to run another room on another device, such as Mobile phone or Tablet.

Kindest regards,

Olivier
