As many participants have only Windows on their desks at their 
workplaces at the printer manufacturers, we need a solution to dial into 
a phone conference server in the US. This means that we should have some 
kind of voice-over-IP bridge which connects our conference room via the 
local network to some gateway to the real phone network. To reduce phone 
costs to dial to the phone conference server in the US we can make use 
of www.telerabais.com, which means by simply preceeding the number of 
the phone conference server with 0811-653131 the call to the US will 
call the same as a local call inside Bordeaux. The phone conference 
server in the US will be organized by the FSG OpenPrinting people.

I do not know the software mentioned below. Does linphone do this 
voice-over-IP bridge from our room to the real phone network?

We also need a conference phone (or a similar microphone/speaker system) 
in our room, so that on the phone conferences everyone calling in from 
the outside will understand everyone talking in the room and also we in 
the room will understand everyone calling in.
