> o to create applicable DNS entry(/ies) for your jitsi server
> o will likely need TLS(/"SSL") CA cert(s)
> o the jitsi server software (install and configure, possibly first
>   configuring and building/compiling) and suitable operating system and
>   host to run it on (including ample resources)
