Requires a room with more than one working mic. Sometimes that's all we get. Stupid related question: 98% of the people in the room have two or more devices with a mic in their possession during the meeting. Why do we queue at mics and needs special mics for scribes when we've got all this idle hardware laying about the room? A simple SIP conference bridge with UAs sporting "push to talk" and time-delay features (echo avoidance) might make life much easier. -- Dean _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html. https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/vmeet
