Re: [GnomeMeeting-devel-list] Increasing required time to answer a call: Opinion

[Damien Sandras <dsandras seconix com>]

Let's summarize.

What do you think is the best behavior for gnomemeeting?

I propose :
- setting the calling time to PMaxInterval in the endpoint so that
GnomeMeeting doesn't stop calling until there is a reaction on the
remote side.
- Add a configurable timeout between 10 and 300 seconds in gnomemeeting
to either reject the call for no answer (or forward it if forward on no
answer is selected).

Do you think it is good or bad? I don't like setting the timeout to
PMaxInterval...
