Good afternoon everyone, As you might have guessed, Ekiga 4.0 is on its way. It will be the latest release to be based on GTK2 technologies. It is also the first release where I did not code day and night to get it ready. It would not have been possible to keep Ekiga alive when everything was going bad for me without the help of you all and mainly Eugen who has been doing an incredible amount of work on Ekiga. Eugen, thank you very much!! Ekiga is now up to speed again. The 4.0 UI is more modern and is very stable: I'm using it daily with our BeIP product range and it works like a charm :) The community has made Ekiga 4.0 possible and new patches are already waiting for Ekiga 4.2: T.140 Realtime text support, H.239 video control support, and a few others. Right before the release, I would like people to help cleaning the website and the WIKI. The discussion is open, but from my point of view, you should not be redirected to the WIKI from the website to download things. It is confusing and difficult. I would also clean the WIKI from the user manual. The right source for it is through the Ekiga help menu : it allows having a translated user manual, and moreover, the manual version which corresponds to your software release. The WIKI should present another type of documentation: Debugging problems, going technically deeper into details, and so on. Any volunteer to refresh the website and the WIKI ? Any volunteer to modernize the CSS for the look & feel ? The next step is the Ekiga.net upgrade to more recent software releases. I plan to open up new features, at least for some users, like voicemail, RTP relaying in case of NAT and others... Thanks ! Damien |
