Integrated webcam

Sometimes, user could not reach internal numbers, getting a message ‘Please wait while the call is established…’ instead. It's fixed now. -
Switch device
It could be impossible to switch a conference to Android mobile. The root cause was due to a character "&" in the bubble name. -
