Yes it is. I hope they do to, it would nice to see things like video
and plugins to be added and opal get up to where openh323 is. I
suppose it'll happen eventually but I know there's alot of impatient
people out there :-)

Alot of people aren't running gtk2.6 yet so it would be nice, but then
I suppose when we get to a stable release most people probably will
be, what functionality would be loose or how hard would it be to do
some sort of run time detection? I'm loving the gtk2.6/gnome2.10
combination on FC4Test, it is sooo much faster than the last ver. The
memory improvements they've been doing are fairly noticeable.

Well that's nice to know. Eventually I'll get time at work to play with it :-)
