I was actually being a lazy/busy blogger and reposting something I found elsewhere, but that's a good topic to consider doing a quality post for.

I have a tip for you. Novell have a product called Teaming + Conferencing. http://www.novell.com/products/teaming/index.html This is built on top of the open source project called ICEcore. http://www.icecore.org/ Not sure if ICEcore is packaged in openSUSE but wouldn't it be great if it was. Showing how Novell and the openSUSE community lives together, and that open source projects and Novells product lines live together? Warm Regards, Claes Backstrom Hi Zonker.

"Conferencing" has been point-to-point for many developers (take a look at Ekiga etc, completely forgotten area to really support real conferencing). The best bets even nowadays are VIC and RAT, sadly. It is sad especially as with gstreamer there are already video/audio/im/groupchat/filesharing/etc plugins available. Wrapping up something actually usable should not be much of a work. Alas, there has not been genuine vision. Add up also some networked scheduling (how to ask people to meetings), drawingboard, and a way to record meetings properly using those new gstreamer based capabilities => real conferencing.
