Katie, from our communications group, contacted the GoToWebinar folks
and got this response:
"We do not currently have plans to support Linux OS. I can send a
suggestion to our developers on your behalf, so they can consider it
for future updates."

And then directly from Katie:
"I realize it's terribly annoying, but we haven't found a better
webinar-hosting option yet, though we'd be open to suggestions."

So there you have it. No Windows+Mac+Linux solution is known at this
point, at any price, let alone a reasonable price, but we are open to
suggestions if somebody knows of an existing option.


Thx,
David
