Thank you for your patience.  

I have almost succeeded in getting things working.  My son was able to call me 
using Pulver Communicator on my FWD account.  He was able to receive sound 
and video.  I was only able to receive sound, but audio quality was 
excellent.

When I called him, the audio quality deteriorated considerable but we were 
both able to have audio and video.  So I'm getting closer but Pulver 
Communicator locks up frequently so that's not really a solution.  The world 
really needs the Windows version of Ekiga since as far as I know Ekiga is the 
only VOIP program which is not tied to a specific service and which allows 
the user to select his own account(s).

So once again, congratulations on an excellent program and please, please, 
please release the Windows version as soon as possible.  I'll be more than 
happy to be a pre-pre-Alpha tester.
