It looks like Teamspeak requires installation of client software, available on Windows, MacOS X and Linux. How do people feel about that? In exchange for the client software install requirement, the major advantage of Teamspeak (or SIP-based VOIP, for that matter) is the ability to bypass the PSTN and associated charges. For example, while Freeconference (http://www.freeconference.com/) offers free conference bridges, it does require the ability to reach the conference call #, which could be an issue for people attending from outside the U.S. > From: Hannes.Tschofenig@gmx.net > To: Bernard_Aboba@hotmail.com; radiusext@ops.ietf.org > Subject: RE: Virtual meeting technology > Date: Thu, 7 May 2009 20:19:12 +0300 > > The IPSECME group is using an open source tool from the gaming community, > see http://www.teamspeak.com/. > > I like it when folks join the conference bridge and the server announces > "Player has joined". > > It does not provide slide sharing but that's OK.
