[GnomeMeeting-list] Non-standard cam support

["phogg patmedia net" <phogg patmedia net>]

Hi.

I have been using a phillips-based cam with gnomemeeting. I recently 
picked up a D-Link DCS-900
ethernet cam as a security cam.

While I like the phillips-based cam, I was wondering if there was any 
consideration for extending
gnomemeeting to support ethernet-based cams. I could not find anything 
on this subject on the
web page, or by scanning the past 3 months of the mailing-list archives.

I must admit, I haven't researched whether the java-applet provided by 
the D-Link cam is anywhere
near a  standard, it would seem to me that allowing for plug-ins for 
browser-based cams might
extend the range of cams that gnomemeeting would support. And, with the 
proliferation of
home networks, there might be a bunch of folks who would like to just 
plug in an ethernet cam and
not have to deal with usb support issues.

I could be wrong, of course, but I thought I'd toss this one out for 
consideration.

Regards,

John
