Only *you* will be able to call them, because your port listening for
incoming calls won't be reachable from the outside.

So the FAQ formulation is not really relevant :

"If you are using GnomeMeeting 1.2, and are calling a GnomeMeeting 1.2
user, only one of the 2 GnomeMeeting users needs to be configured to
go through NAT. The configured GnomeMeeting user will transparently
help the non-configured one to go through the NAT router. However, it is recommended that both sides are configured."


The FAQ doesn't tell you will magically be able to receive incoming
calls, it just tells that the calls you will place will be able to go
through.

I understand. It is the word "call" that is ambiguous. Why not explaining like it :

"If you are using GnomeMeeting 1.2, and are calling a GnomeMeeting 1.2 user, only one of the 2 GnomeMeeting users needs to be configured to go through NAT. The configured GnomeMeeting user will transparently help the non-configured one to go through the NAT router. However, the non-configured GnomeMeeting user won't be able to receive calls, so it is recommended that both sides are configured."
