Videoconferencing over IP can be seen as such a highly prominent candidate. However, heavy infrastructure and complicated call handling hinder acceptance of standard solutions. This paper presents a more lightweight framework - both communication scheme and conferencing software - to overcome these deficiencies. A simple, ready-to-use global location scheme for conference users is proposed. First practical experiences are reported.}, theme = {vcoip}, file = {../papers/terena02-paper.pdf}, }
