[asterisk-biz] Implementation of Video Conferencingusing Asterisk

Tue May 20 06:00:28 CDT 2008

They confuse the issue by calling the wiki a white board when it's
really a wiki - no real ability to draw/chart any basic whiteboard
functionality.

Interesting to note that www.huddle.net <http://www.huddle.net/>  is
using Zoho writer for their online document editor (basic word docs etc)
and Zoho sheet for excel. Wondering how long till they have a basic PPT
function as well.

Also very different from the original post about screen sharing - so not
sure why this was even suggested.

As it's only available as an ASP service still has the issue some people
might want to download this and run from their own server but not a bad
looking application.

Cheers,
Dean

steve,
does this compete with huddle?  this used to be open source, or at least
there was an osrc version https://www.webhuddle.com/

What is Huddle?

Huddle gives you simple, secure online workspaces containing powerful,
office, project and collaboration tools
<http://www.huddle.net/online-collaboration>  that can be used for a
variety of purposes. Huddle is hosted, there's no software to download
and it's free to get started.

With Huddle you can instantly create a network of collaborative team
workspaces, each time bringing together the right team for the right
activity. You can manage projects
<http://www.huddle.net/project-management> , team and relationships or
share ideas <http://www.huddle.net/document-sharing> , files and
information, or both. And because you are joining a network of
workspaces, you can collaborate with hundreds of different people, teams
and organisations globally in one place.

Does this not do multicast?  I cannot find it in the docs but if it
does along with all the other features, it looks pretty hot.  I think
I am going to dive into this.

"VMukti's complete focus is on placing the users and customers in
control by abolishing the artificial restrictions imposed by vendors.
Deploy VMukti On-Demand or On-Site. Use VMukti Open Source Edition for
free or pay for the commercial editions. Create modules that can be
collaborative or non-collaborative. With commercial open source, users
are in charge."

What are the core features of the Vmukti?

conferencing is

the box
