What Web Conferencing platforms for political organising?

I'm researching web conferencing options for the Socialist Alliance. We've always used hookups to meet and discuss what we're doing across the great distances of Australia and after using landlines for some time moved to web based systems like PalTalk.

But after a succession of dropouts over many meetings I think we need to broaden our options. But when shopping for a platform the complication is that you need people to shop with. A key requirement is to have a number over 10 and maybe no more than 20 online at the same time with all participants experiencing good audio.

That's the marker: good audio x 20 with no (if possible) drop outs.

So register..and join us:

The platform we're exploring is DimDim -- and it's free for 20 people online and open sourced.
