Actually they have released their software under the GPL. So we could 
host this on our servers in the future, if needed (of course, might be a 
hassle for sysadmins, etc). Their hosted service is free for up to 20 
simultaneous users.

Yes, the Flash plugin is needed. I am not sure if it works with Gnash of 
SwfDec, though. We could test it, might be an option.

Good point. But sharing a whiteboard and screens is cool, not sure how 
well it works and scales, to be honest.

I might be around, not sure about the scheduled time, would it be 20:00 
UTC as always? I find that Saturdays and Sundays are not really the best 
days for meetings, but have no other suggestions at this time. Anyway, 
we should schedule it for IRC I think, but find some time to try the 
conferencing solution in the future, it could be a good method for 
better interaction (for bug hunting, real time collaboration, etc.)

Among other things, we could discuss the Summer of Code issues, and 4.3.
