This was inevitable! I've even forgotten Slack doesn't have voice calls and then am surprised when I try to call and realise I can't.
Skype/Google Hangout/the others are surely going to struggle to compete here I feel

@bentossell was just going to wrote that. We use video more than audio only so we can't wait for video support, no more Hangout links then!

@bentossell Slack isn't yet in the charity business :) In the free plan (most used for communications outside the company), only the 1:1 call is included otherwise you'll have to move to the standard $6,67 plan. So as long as the free plan only includes 1:1 calls, link based conferencing based on WebRTC probably will be the easiest way.
