Here, there are a group of users that uses NetMeeting in a intensive
way (video-conferences with USA universities by Internet2). This 
groups are growing quicker than I expected.

But, they uses NetMeeting not only for chat, because they can
share their desktops, and so.

Thanks to GNOME Meeting, some of them are taken seriously migrate 
to Linux if they can get the same as Windows.

IMHO, share your desktop and take audio/video conference, 
share a whiteboard, are very related and useful in network
world based.  But share desktop is still missing.

It's not only for fun.

My argue its only to show that GNOME Meeting is not a toy,
for the right people is a very useful tool every day. 
If GNOME Meeting should be or not in Destkop, I don't know.
Distros commonly suggests the applications they thinks
are useful, and the users install applications as requested.
