We committed ourselves to use the tapioca framework  (http://tapioca- 
voip.sourceforge.net/) to integrate VoIP and more. Decibel will be on  
top of it. Tapioca has several advantages which are key features for us:

We want to integrate more than just VoIP. We want to have all kind of  
real-time communication accessible via the framework. Tapioca  
provides this feature.

DBUS-Based infrastucture: The protocol specific stuff is located in  
connections managers  which are connected to the DBUS. This provides  
interoperability and does not crash the whole application if any  
connection manager crashes.
Another important aspect is that a new connection-manager is  
extending all applications using Decibel automatically. Due to the  
fact that Tapioca is used by the gnome developers,  we create a  
synergy effect which will be a benefit for all.
Maybe it is an idea to intergrate the Open Wengo library as a  
connection manager? I'm sure we all would benefit from a realiable  
and stable VoIP backend.

What do you think?


Mfg., Stefan Eilers
