Out of curiosity, what kind of product is it?

The problem is that H.263 is covered by patents.

Actually, there exists a patch for OpenH323 that enables H.263 (you can
find references on voxgratia.org). Once you have applied that patch, you
have only one line to add in GnomeMeeting to get H.263 support.

That's however not a real plugin. I hope it helps, if not, don't
hesitate to mail again.
