    Yeah, that's where I got connected to RAT and SDR.  Most of what
I've read about Gstreamer it's a way to play stored files through
author's plugins to various output devices (with/without editing, etc). 

    But if these plugins are written cleverly enough, the distinction
between network congestion delays and drive access delays become
unclear.

    Is this really such a task that Allen Cox and Linus himself dare to
look upon it?  Because at some point millions of Microsoft minions will
be using it, and it's an area in which Linux lags far, far behind. 
CU-SEEME is out...for whatever reason they've all but abandoned support
for Linux at this point.  What they DO have is so old it reminds me of
the new stuff coming out of SCO.

    :)
