hi
I found an article about it on planet fedora. Let me see if I can get
an exact link. I know the council uses irc channels like most of
fedora, but they also use video for some things, I'm sorry, I'm not
clear on exactly what they use it for. Let me get that link. Here we
are, http://tirfa.com/supporting-open-source-video-conferencing.html.
This was on the planet fedora site.
Thanks
Kendell clark
