WebRTC is indeed a neat thing and it's to have services that take care
of establishing the peer-to-peer connection. appear.in work well, but
it seems to require the use of non-free javascript.

I agree, WebRTC is clearly the winning technology and the way to go in
the future.

It's not true that all modern browsers support it, though, so I don't
think it's fair to start using it quite yet. The implementation in
WebKit, for example, is still buggy and disabled in both WebKitGTK+ and
Safari. That needs fixed before we start using it for GNOME events,
else people won't be able to participate with the GNOME web browser

That is the spirit! Although, we had extensions that did not work on
the GNOME Web browser either.

Hey, you did not react to Nicolas Dufresne's suggestion of using webrtc ?
Services like appear.in do not require installing extra software, as most
of the heavy lifting is already done by modern browsers ( I'm sure someone
will implement support in emacs at some point :) ).

I don't know enough about it to have an opinion.

I am provide the advice I mentioned in the form of a URL -- people
