Of course, SIP and also Jabber/XMPP are protocols that can be federated, by default and by design, and need not an exclusive authority to operate. Stop using ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo and Skype. http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~bo92cafu/im.html http://wwwcip.cs.fau.de/~bo92cafu/im.html We have SIP and Jabber/XMPP in the spirit of what the WWW was originally designed for. Also, in this sense, you choose the software you like, not someone else. Proprietary protocols make the WWW weaker and PC is lesser fun. -- Proper English www.reddit.com/r/proper 4 teh lulz... http://email.is-not-s.ms _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
