I have need for a one-on-one video conferencing system.  I find 
appealing the privacy of hosting my own server, but the big advantage 
would be that the guy on the other end can just type in my URL without 
installing a package and configuring it.  This is the first time I have 
heard of Janus.  I was considering Jitsi Meet, but that package appears 
to be not yet in the "it just works" category.  My next selection for 
video conferencing would have been Ekiga, but Ekiga requires 
installation and configuration on both ends.

Am I misunderstanding the role and capabilities of Janus, or would Janus 
would suit my application?  Is Janus suitable for one-on-one 
conferencing over a "garden-variety" link (2000 kbit/sec download, 500 
kbit/sec upload)?
