Dan,

We do something pretty similar to what you are talking about. We

started from Stratus with an XMPP backend and now we use LCCS as our video

service. The main change was switching to rooms instead of passing IDs.

So now if a user initiates a call the client connects to our server and uses

the server side apis to create a room and then we use XMPP to share the room

name. Then both parties join the room to meet up. We reuse our rooms but

I suppose you don't have to.

It is possible to disable failover, and I'm pretty sure there are some

threads about it on this forum. We authenticate our users, but thinking

about it I don't think you have to. If our authentication method just

returned true all the time I suppose every one would be a guest It

works pretty well, there are few things missing we wish we had but it's not

a bad solution and we have it out in the field with some pilot users.

Good Luck,

-Eric
