About the audio/video chat solution for Plasma Active 3

[Mario Fux]

Good morning dear KDE Telepathy team

First I'd like to apologize for the confusion I created about this topic. I 
try to clear it with this email and will be ready to answer any questions of 
course.

Ok so here the history that preceded the confusion ;-):

Some weeks ago I had a conversation with Martin Klepetek on IRC about what 
would be necessary (code and time) to have a simple audio/video chat solution 
(like Skype or Google Hangout) with KDE Telepathy technology. My idea was (and 
is) as well to find some money (if the necessary effort was manageable) to 
sponsor a developer to work on this.

Martin then sent me the attached email and I had another conversation with 
Dario Freddi about what's necessary in Telepathy upstream and how cooperative 
Collabora would be. We three then planned a Skype or so discussion which 
didn't happen yet.

Then came the Plasma Active 3 meeting where I participated and as I was 
already in contact with two of your KDE Telepathy guys I took over this task 
[1] (mainly to contact you what I do herewith ;-).

So now the question are:
- How do we proceed with the audio/video chat solution?
- What the overhead for such a solution on Plasma Active (PA)?
- Did somebody of you already worked with PA?
- What do you think about the idea to find a sponsored developer?

Thanks for your reading and best regards
Mario
