Thanks Eric, I remember trying to get this working several months ago 
via the linux compatibility layer and got stuck.  i hope to take another 
wack at it based on your repository.  in my ideal world i'd be able to 
get this working in a jail via, but i think just getting the bits to 
work is probably the most important task.

i've had working solutions based on jitsi and riot.im with acceptable 
performance, so i suspect our webcamd bits are in good enough shape to 
support this.  interested to see how how this effort progresses :)
