I think Mark means Exchange Conferencing Server or Service. The ability to invite multiple parties to a virtual meeting place online isn¹t part of LCS. LCS2003 replaced the IM functions. LCS 2005 grows on that with enhancements, including extranet connectivity services to partners and public services, but the ?many to many¹ functions of ECS is not there yet. LiveMeeting is effectively the replacement for ECS, and LCS2005 features ?improved LiveMeeting Integration² (whatever that means). See http://www.microsoft.com/office/livecomm/prodinfo/compare.mspx for more info.
