Hi Debra,

We 'skyped' to Germany 2 weeks ago, 6 students and I in the computer 
lab and 1 contact in Germany.  I asked one of my students what the 
max. number is, and she said TEN, if I remember correctly, i.e. I 
don't know either for sure!  We were EIGHT members and it worked 
fine.  Please let us know when you receive a better answer.
