Speaking as a voice on the side... why do we/you/... want ekiga to be a gnome component? Why not a generic program which is independent of any desktop environment? (I'm not bad-mouthing gnome 2 or gnome 3; I do prefer gnome 2 to kde. However, as a non-gnome desktop environment user (Slackware dropped gnome many years ago), the "gnome" aspects of (first gnomemeeting and then) ekiga have caused me considerable amounts of grief over the years. In particular, gconfd has caused lots of problems, and it is unclear to me what the benefits are, in particular for people who don't use gnome as their DE.) As an(other?) example, I am having no luck when behind a NAT router. I see no gui option to set up STUN. I search the web a bit and find out I need to use gconf-editor. Too bad that it doesn't exist on slackware, since (presumably) there is no gnome. Ho hum.
