Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
System and method to obviate a conferencing hub, in one embodiment the method including: subscribing to a meet-me conference call that comprises a plurality of endpoints; monitoring for a triggering condition related to the meet-me conference call; and if the triggering condition is triggered then, for each endpoint of the conference call, redirecting a media stream produced by the endpoint from the conferencing hub to another endpoint. In another embodiment, the method includes: receiving a call from a first endpoint to join a new meet-me conference; waiting a predetermined waiting-time; if no other endpoints have joined the meet-me conference during the waiting-time, disconnecting the first endpoint from the meet-me conference in order to obviate the meet-me conference hub; receiving a call from a second endpoint to join the meet-me conference; calling back the first endpoint; and bridging together the first endpoint and the second endpoint to reassemble the meet-me conference.
