GNOME org would def be one. A couple of other ones that comes to mind would be XIPH if it was related to one of their codecs such as speex/celt/theora etc. The other would be gstreamer if someone wanted to move forward the gstreamer support in ekiga. You'd just need an appropriate mentor. What projects do we propose ? Who is ready to mentor ? Regarding projects, I would like to propose the two at http://blogs.gnome.org/simos/2008/08/10/features-for-the-killer-voip-app/ 1. Add a general wizard for users that want to configure their own SIP provider. 2. Add UPNP support. I think the main aim for additional project ideas would be to make Ekiga even more usable to Linux users (using Ubuntu, Fedora, etc). In addition, Linux netbooks tend to have Skype shipped as default. It would be beneficial to have the option to use Ekiga instead, and have users ask for Ekiga. I do not know of other UI and usability improvements that can be done. Are there any other suggestions?

Re: [Ekiga-list] (no subject)
An audio message is different from an audio conversation - Ekiga is optimised for conversations. If you want to record audio there are plenty of programs out there that will do that - Audacity comes to mind.
