Only kphone has jack support built in, and it doesn't upsample or downsample, so you have to run your jack server at 8khz. Even then it has trouble if your hardware can't do 8khz. It would be nice to have a jack driver and jack codec for asterisk. So far as I know the cvs version of gnomemeeting (now, akiga) has iaxclient support. I love the idea of a standard conference room server for linux-audio users. Freeswitch's #freeswitch irc channel is integrated with their audio conference room, and it's a gas. Useful would be a weekly concall for developers of the various linux audio projects, or just a place to hang out sharing helpful tips and information, even music.... Like everything in this world such a concall would only get more useful as metcalfe's law kicks in. If anyone needs help on how to setup an asterisk server or needs help getting voip (SIP or IAX) working in general, feel free to drop me a line. At the moment I have several asterisk servers operational, (a podcast -> iax/sip gateway for thespaceshow is publicly available) but few have tons of bandwidth available, so perhap's lee's server could become a std meeting place....
