[Ekiga-list] Wishlist?...
There's 2 things that I really wish ekiga could do... so I wonder if the beta's have any nice new features you guys can tell me about... or if not, here's a couple of suggestions... 1, It seems like it'd be really nice to have a conference facility, where you could recieve multiple calls and conference them together, or conversely, make multiple calls and like them together... If it was really clever you could leave a conference without closing it, and/or make/recieve another call and then rejoin a running conference. 2, Much simpler, seemingly... It'd be REALLY nice to have a way to quickly switch audio devices, preferably independently for input and output... mabe have configuratble profiles?... this would be so that you could switch between speaker and headset while in call... or keep the headset on, and just allow somone else to listen in,... whichever...

That's planned, but is not high priority in the TODO list... -- _ Damien Sandras (o- //\Ekiga Softphone : http://www.ekiga.org/ v_/_ NOVACOM : http://www.novacom.be/ FOSDEM : http://www.fosdem.org/ SIP Phone : sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
