Hmm.<br>
If the call initiator mixes all the data for all the participants
its not really distributed.<br>
Its just a hosted service with floating hosts.<br>
It would be a real problem if you wanted to initiate a large meeting
while having a bad internet connection.<br>

Jami looks interesting and being distributed appeals to me.<br>

I wonder how well it works in the face of people using
limited bandwidth connections with out traffic management.<br>

you get some extra cost business package.<br>
