But I think as SIP is becoming more popular, why not SIP support

(That's the reason I'm on this list, that of course is a protocol problem,
because h.323 sucks)

But I believe that the main thing about Skype is that it just works (at least
I was told so) and that H.323 just doesn't work (most of the time, without
having to configure at least the other side PC and the router). As far as I
can tell, the important thing missing about the Skype approach is video, but
I think that might be in the P2P nature of the protocol.
I think the main thing missing at the moment is a nice Win32 H.323 client that
can do some more stuff than NetMeeting can do and is more stable than the
other Open Source stuff. I strongly believe that GnomeMeeting could close
that hole perfectly, go for it.
Have fun,
Marcus

There's only one person who hugs the mothers and the widows, the wives and
the kids upon the death of their loved one. Others hug but having committed
the troops, I've got an additional responsibility to hug and that's me and I
know what it's like
