I was unaware of Jitsi. At first glance it looks like it does basically what Skype does, but over XMPP and using an open source product. I assume since you brought it up, that you use it. Any impressions you’d care to share, especially regarding multi-user video chats?
(this may be relevant to the Less Wrong Study Hall project; one of the options kicked around was an XMPP based system. At the moment we’re not pursuing that route, but it’s early days yet.)
Jitsi is also relevant to this question, and I will concur that network effects are very frustrating.
