I had to pay long distance anyway (Canada), as would have any European
participants.

The Asterisk option would be *fantastic*! I'd be happy to help out in
any way with this. You can get free SIP numbers from SIPphone.com, and
free softphone clients. I've got one, but haven't done anything with
it yet.

As well, we had already talked about using Skype for ad-hoc
communication. I think we need a Windows or Linux box to act as the
initiator for group calls? And to how many does this scale? Worth some
investigation.
