I understand. It is the word "call" that is ambiguous. Why not 
explaining like it :

"If you are using GnomeMeeting 1.2, and are calling a GnomeMeeting 1.2 
user, only one of the 2 GnomeMeeting users needs to be configured to go 
through NAT. The configured GnomeMeeting user will transparently help 
the non-configured one to go through the NAT router. However, the 
non-configured GnomeMeeting user won't be able to receive calls, so it 
is recommended that both sides are configured."
