Asking people in the open source community to use proprietary tools to
interact is just broken.  If you can't figure out a 100% open source
conferencing solution, then you just don't do it - rather than saying
the proprietary tools are the best available.  I was asked, as a
maintainer of an entirely unrelated free software project, to be on a
"conference call" using non-free tools - and I simply declined to
participate.  (Expecting people that you pay for their time to use
non-free tools is another matter; I'm talking about people in a free
software community that don't owe you anything.)
