Hi Igor: I would be surprised if anyone here on this list knows much about how easy it would be to replace qt with ncurses but I'd say go for it and try. We have played quite a bit with both twinkle and linphone and they both have advantages and drawbacks. Yes twinkle supports zrtp but linphone supports ipv6 which twinkle does not. Twinkle has a much nicer interface in console mode but linphone has better noise cancellation and echo control. Linphone is not as robust as twinkle is however and likes to segfault whenever it gets a chance. They can both be nice to use and iritating when they aren't working as advertised unfortunately. So if we could get one feature rich stable sip client it would be nice. If anyone knows of any other console based sip clients we don't know about it would also be useful to hear about them. I would also like to invite folks interested in playing with sip and freeswitch to join us at sip:3000 at linux-speakup.org to play. If we can get things all working correctly the possibilities seem endless. I am thinking of language channels for folks interested in learning and speaking various languages and all sorts of special interest discussion groups. We have a fair way to go before we have it all figured out but the more the merrier from a discussion perspective. Hell, we might even be able to do a little tech support, who knows! We are currently looking into getting chats working and a skype bridge up. There are probably good windows soft phone clients but I don't know what they are. I'd be interested in finding out how ekiga works for blinks also. Kirk On Tue, 25 Jan 2011, Igor Gueths wrote: > Hi all.
