This is a huge project, and it is not entirely clear to me whether this is
appropriate for the IETF.
The first thing you have to decide is whether this is a SIP based project or a
H.323 based project. SIP is more appropriate
for the IETF. There are various H.323 open source projects out there, including
GnuGK, H323Plus and XMeeting.

The IETF primarily communicates by Internet-drafts. Detailed work of this sort
also shouldn't be done on the general IETF list.
You might want to consider having a bar-BOF on this subject at the Prague IETF.
