In the mail sent out there is a line saying "Before joining, be sure
to *check system requirements* to avoid any connection issues."
with a link to a test page.

And here are the "System Requirements for Attendees":

Note the part with "Join from a web browser (no download required)".
That might work if you have some unsupported client.
