Thanks Michael. I see they started the "Open H323" project.
 But meanwhile they have a commercial product "phonepatch":

For anyone else who is interested, it runs on your Linux (or other)
internet-connected PC, and acts like a proxy for Netmeeting etc.
Presumably you could run Netmeeting in Vmware.
3 minutes free limit, or 1 month free trial, or $50.

I'm amazed to discover that Microsoft NetMeeting, Netscape Conference and
Intel Internet VideoPhone actually use _standard_ protocols.
Has Netscape ever said they will port 'Conference' to Linux?
