Live meeting software for Linux questions

You will need a decent broadband connection to do live streaming.

As far as live video, I have been having good results lately with  
iChat (and also Skype and Yahoo IM), now that I have a 'Book with a  
camera built in. If someone there could bring a MacBook (Matt?) and I  
could set mine up at a meeting here in St. Louis, we could have a  
Missouri joint meeting. Yahoo and Skype would also work with non- 
Apple products, too.

Would be nice also to record it for people who can't make it live.  
Attach a recorder to the vga/s-video output? That requires an  
adapter, and it would be better if video could be recorded directly  
from screen to disk.
