Some bugs have been fixed since then :-).

But seriously, the H.323 (conntrack/nat) helper is based on a crude hack.
It works only in the most simplest cases, when nothing as complicated as
"faststart/H.245 tunnelling", gatekeeper, RAS, etc are involved.

The module usage has no relation with the number of the ongoing netmeeting
sessions. "unused" means: "no other module depends on me"
