Video conferencing will probably not be available in 1.4.  Asterisk does
not include any video codecs - it is only able to pass through video
data that has been encoded by other devices/programs.  Including video
codecs in Asterisk may be problematic as there are patent/copyright
issues to be sorted out.  Even if Asterisk included video codecs
zaptel/meetme does not know how to mix anything other than audio.
