How would you implement browser-based video conferencing?

A client wants to build a website wherein multiple users (say 10 at a time) would be able to log in and converse with each other with sound and video in a virtual meeting room, with one user in particular broadcasting at a respectably high resolution, say 640x480. First of all, is this even possible to put together? If so, then what's the best way?

I'm quite baffled as to how to approach this

It could be done with Flash but playback performance could be a issue with that many streams.

I'd suggest Java.
