FreedomBox has an additional goal: privacy. This limits some of the<br>
options (or requires each option to be scrutinised more carefully).<br>
<br>
Nonetheless, FreedomBox should work with some of the other solutions.<br>
It may be very generous and accept any TLS connection, or it may be<br>
more severe and require all signaling to go over TOR, for example. I<br>
plan to document the privacy issues more thoroughly to help decide on<br>
these strategies.<br>

<br>
</div>WebRTC is for browser-based audio/video. FreedomBox could potentially<br>
provide a web server with such a page for users on the local LAN to<br>
use. The browser would then be just another type of client.<br>
<br>

Do you want to add these links into the wiki page?<br></blockquote><div><br>I've added two links under "related work" on the FBX wiki (I'm guessing that's what you meant).<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
