	Asterisk 10 now supports basic video conference functions with
Confbridge.  I have not personally used this as we are still using 1.8
on all production servers at the moment but I saw it working last year
at Astricon.  From what I saw you can have all participants call in to
the same conference but they will only see the video from the active
speaker, not all participants at the same time.  Video source will
change to the active speaker.

	There was another product shown at Astricon that allowed full video
conference integration with Asterisk: http://www.projectdiastar.org/
