whats new in the remote partizipants / multiconferencing world ?
Google aquired marratech a few years ago [ 1 ] , cisco aquired webex , [ 2

Adobe unveils Connect 8 Web and videconferencing tool set [ 4 ], Xcast is
there but very quiet [ 5 ]
VP8 a fantastic codec is there, its opensource [ 6 ] Nokia bought
Trolltech and its opensource now [ 7 ]
#Ipv6 is on the way, will there be ipv6 multicast ?
There has always been ipv6 multicast.
Who wants to pay 70.000 $ per year for webex, who wants to pay 40.000 $ per
year for a so called "opensource" multiconferencing like DIMDIM ?
Who wants to pay 1295 $ per month for a paltalk room ?
So there is still no "cool" functioning opensource multi - conferencing out
there for the masses after 10 years . !
We´ve made a little feature list about what we think , what might be "cool".
This is a huge project, and it is not entirely clear to me whether this is
appropriate for the IETF.
The first thing you have to decide is whether this is a SIP based project or a
H.323 based project. SIP is more appropriate
for the IETF. There are various H.323 open source projects out there, including
GnuGK, H323Plus and XMeeting.

The IETF primarily communicates by Internet-drafts. Detailed work of this sort
also shouldn't be done on the general IETF list.
You might want to consider having a bar-BOF on this subject at the Prague IETF.

I am looking forward for some comments and insights about why only cisco/
polycom/ tandberg / radvision tells us that
" Video/ multiconferencing at home " will be the next BIG thing.

and warm greetings from germany
