[clue] [TALK] A possible solution (was: Why CLUE does not video stream meetings)

Point of clarification:

Gus is correct in that yes, he along with a few others (David Willson, Dave Ansemli, and Jon Butler (SP?) come to mind IIRC; my apologies for leaving out others since another member of Linux ETC was involved with the testing) did test the web conferencing systems provided by Linux ETC back during an InstallFest and CLUE Meeting or two.  Thus, some conferencing time WAS donated.  If more web conference services is desired by CLUE as a whole, see my prior post for such services and terms.

If Gus and Don wish to try something their own for CLUE as David Willson suggested and noted in a later post, feel free to.  My response was pointing out a solution.  The initial request did not clarify a "free" or "paid" service though.  So my response is quite legit and valid.

FWIW.  Also to note I receive this email list in Digest format so pardon any delayed responses in advance.
