[Fsuk-manchester] [FSFE-Manc] Software Freedom Day: Hunt for Skype alternatives

Hi!

I have tried that and I couldn't get it working :( The error was 
something like "Could not establish connection (ICE failed)". We used 
different combinations of servers and protocols and we definitely tried 
with both using the same server (gmail in that case).

Hope that helps,

Stefanie
