[Ambassadors] Project of visioconference plateform implementation

[Abdel G. Martínez L.]

Hello Kévin.

I have read about the videotutorial initiative and I consider that this
project is a little different.  The main idea of ​​this project is to have a
platform (supported by Fedora) that allows us to make videoconferences, a
new form of Fedora events where people from all over the world can participate
in local events in other countries and why not have the possibility of
creating transnational events.

It is a great idea to have that temp video files saved on the Fedora Videos
project.  Maybe I could start creating some guidelines for the
videoconferences.

This is the link of the BBB project:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BigBlueButton
This is the tutorial for installing on Fedora (depreciated):
http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/InstallingBigBlueButtonFedora

Hope this informations helps.  Expecting opinions and comments...

Regards.
