Replacement is a big word.
I would expect that meetme in its current format will not be able to
support video multiplexing.
App_conference on the other hand looks like it may do.
If you're into hacking code, the TIPIC libraries will support simple
video communications at the moment, although I have been unable to
compile it successfully.
There was some discussion a while ago on the dev list regarding the
replacement of meetme with app_conference, and the general consensus was
that it wouldn't happen.
This means that you will need to add it (possibly even in the future) to
the apps directory and patch/alter the Makefile.
OT: Mail me offlist if you are interested in building 3G/UMTS support
into Asterisk.
