Great, yet another client. Soon there will be so many different VOIP clients and protocols, that everybody will be waiting 30 minutes on computer startup to run each client. The VOIP market is getting very messy as I see it. Each protocol is a completely seperate one from all the others, with no way to communicate with any other.
If VOIP is to grow mainstream or gain popularity in the general public, there needs to be a standard protocol. One that each different client can use. I use skype, you use this one, she uses that one. Id much rather have one client that uses a standard protocol than have all 3 clients running.
