While I appreciate the intent of the above, I really couldn't care less that Skype is a non-free (non-libré) software with a "secret and proprietary protocol owned and controlled by one company." I don't intend to start a philosophical discussion here, but Skype would have been the easiest for me. As is, the conf. calling is a bit too complicated for my tastes. I will be happy to contribute via the Etherpad, but I will not be able to call in using either a pay or a free (SIP) service.

Puneet.
