about the quality, based on my experience, this heavily depends on 
people's equipment. Not all, but most errors are due to hands-free 
phones or bad lines on the dialler's side. However, my feeling tells me 
that phone lines are more reliable than PC-based solutions, so using 
Skype, Google Hangout and such would IMHO create more problems than it 
solves. I am open for tests, of course.

My question is specifically why people do not want to join, so if anyone 
else has problems with the phone quality, please let us know. Otherwise, 
I don't count it in as a reason for not joining. :)

Yes, indeed, that's something that was simply missing for April's call, 
due to the lack of time, and I am sure this contributed to the lack of 
interest.

So, you are proposing video meetings, or adding pictures to the wiki so 
we "see" each other?
