I think Centra only runs in Sun Java while Acrobat Connect only runs
in Adobe's Flash - neither work in any of the FOSS ones - so that
choice is between the devil and the deep blue sea to me.  It's the
same argument as Open Access but for online conferencing instead of
journals.

It's quite frustrating that Moodle, LernID and Muji are all close but
not quite there, as far as I can tell.  I'd love to help fix this, but
I don't have a funding stream available for it.  Does anyone on this
list know who does?  (I don't care who does it but I'd love to see
this problem solved!)
