Present: Eloisa, Roland, Frank, Matt, Yosef,

Alternatives to Google hangout (should we require them):

* at the workshop TeamSpeak was mentioned since it is used by LIGO and can handle large numbers of participants with little effort (hundred and up to 1000 were used by LIGO) * an open-source alternative using similar technology (same codec) is mumble * both offer a free-as-in-beer server as long as the number of participants is mall (<32 for teamspeak) * both (should) offer public calls and offer clients for all major OS * Frank looked into them a bit and will try and see what would be involved in hosting a server (at LSU) or also to pay for commercial hosting
