Some random thoughts about it :
(1) why not peek at how firefox does this ?

(2) why not have a nice framework for that in ekiga, with a gconf 
implementation and a dummy implementation, then try to find someone to 
provide a win32/kde/whatever implementation?

(3) do the win32 binaries run under wine? Wouldn't that be of interest 
to the wine developpers to help it run under wine? Wouldn't they also be 
able to help with point (2) ?
