[PD] online video conferencing

[fls at rendera.com.br]

Hi Eldad!

Recently we had a netmusic conference (http://netmusic2013.wordpress.com/)
and we used jacktrip for audio streams and bluejeans
(http://bluejeans.com/) to the video streams. Instead of some problems
with bluejeans, it worked.

> Google Hangout should work (I haven't tested it yet) but it doesn't allow
> you, to my knowledge, to separate the video windows and reorganize them on
