asterisk users - Feb 2005 - Meetme with video & audio phone mixed

I want to have a single meetme conference room that interconnects H.323
video phone clients and sip/iax audio phone clients.

I have already set up for meetme to be shared by sip/iax audio phones and I
have just now installed open h323 stuff.

Regarding to this, I have several questions.

#1 Is interconnecting H.323 video phone clients and sip/iax audio phone
clients in meetme possible on *?

#2 If #1 is possible, do I need to use OpenMCU, OpenGK kind of stuff
together with *?

#3 if I need OpenMCU and OpenGK in #2, where can I find configuration
example?

Thanks in advance

Videomixing is not available in Asterisk yet. There is a bounty on 
implementing video conferencing. If you search the mailing list you will 
find several discussions about this.

One thing that may work is to have the H323 video streams mixed by 
OpenMCU. Connect the sip (audio only) clients to asterisk which in turn 
connects to OpenMCU. It may work.
