[html5] Video Chat in HTML5

[Manuel Schmalstieg]

There are also some practical implementations of the spec Ian Hickson
referred to, that are currently being developed by different groups.

This one is the most advanced I have encountered so far, running in "a
modified version of WebKit" under Ubuntu:
https://labs.ericsson.com/apis/web-real-time-communication/documentation

Another project under development is WebRTC:
http://www.webrtc.org/

I hope this helps. Good luck with your project, let us know about the results.
