Free license:  
This work and all modified versions of it may be freely copied, modified, redistributed and used for all legal civilian purposes without formality albeit  
at licensee's own risk and responsibility, subject to the following conditions:  
(1) A copy of this copyright notice with the release history list and the site modification history list must be included in any copy of this work or any  
modified version of it.  
(2) If this work or any modified version of it forms part of a software in object code or binary code, a document for users should accompany the  
software stating this fact and include this copyright notice as well as an URL of the licensee where the source code of the package in the version  
actually being used in the software can be found.  
(3) Any modification (except dropping of the Supplement) should be appropriately documented in the site modification history list below. The last  
date of site modification (at the beginning of the package) is to be updated.  
(4) In case of non-trivial modifications, i.e. those stemming from efficiency or correctness considerations or from issues of interoperability with other  
AES implementations, a copy of the modified package is to be immediately sent to the copyright owner at the address above.  
(5) Eventual negative or unfavourable consequences and losses or damages of any form to any persons in connection with the use of this work or its  
modified versions do not constitute any liabilities on the part of the copyright owner.  
This free license is unlimited in time [1]. Any attempt of non-compliance with the above terms or any occurence of // their practical unsatisfiability  
due to whatever reasons, however, automatically terminates the license. Such termination does not affect other licensees who have previously  
obtained materials from the person with the terminated license but who continue to comply with the above terms.  
Other licenses:  
Any usages of the contents of the package that don't qualify for a free license as stated in the above require explicit // specific licenses from the  
copyright owner.  
[1] Since copyright grants could be revoked after 35 years (see http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap2.html#203), it // could be argued that this  
license is not timeless for sure On the other hand, the lifespan of AES itself isn't likely to exceed that period. So the issue is not practically relevant  
in our context.

Comparison with  
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace ExpressWeb Meetings  
Note  
Information in this section is useful only to people who are familiar with  
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express.  
Web conferences that you add to Cisco Unified Personal Communicator  
conversations include a subset of the functionality that is available in web  
meetings that you initiate from Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express.  
Web conferences that you add to Cisco Unified Personal Communicator  
conversations always have the following characteristics:  
Only sharing and annotating features and connection- and  
screen-management functions are available.  
No Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express password or profile is required to  
participate, but you may need a profile in order to add web conferencing.  
People can join these web conferences only via a  
Cisco Unified Personal Communicator conversation or a URL from the  
conversation. People cannot find or join these web conferences via the  
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express web pages or service on  
Cisco Unified IP Phones.  
All participants in the conference, including the initiator of the web  
conference, have Presenter privileges.  
There are no meeting notifications for these conferences.  
Your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express profile settings do not apply to  
web conferences that you add via Cisco Unified Personal Communicator.

About Merging Calls  
Note  
The Merge button is active only when more than one conversation is in  
progress, and only in the conversation window of the active conversation.  
Video conversations become audio-only after merging.  
When you merge a conversation that includes web conferencing, make sure  
the conversation with web conferencing is NOT the active conversation when  
you merge the conversations.  
If you merge two conversations and subsequently hang up, the other  
participants can continue the conference call.  
Merging Calls  
Procedure  
Step 1  
Choose the conversation that you want to keep, and put it on hold. For example,  
if one conversation includes web conferencing or multiple participants, put that  
conversation on hold.  
Step 2  
Step 3  
Make the other conversation active.  
Merge the conversations using one of the following methods:  
In the active conversation window, click the Merge button.  
Choose Conversation > Merge.  
Step 4  
Choose the person with whose conversation you want to merge.  
The conversation that was on hold becomes the active conversation; all  
participants are in it.
