& Thanks for all your work on Ekiga, Damien.  :)

1) Is it OK for me to post a once or twice monthly announcement
regarding the BerkeleyTIP meeting to this list? Probably about 3 weeks &
1 week ahead of time.  It would note the meeting date, & the
lecture/talks topics, & maybe a few other significant items.

I posted the 1 week style announcement to this list just after the
message you responded to here.  That's what it looks like.

List readers here might like to know about the meeting to: a) work on
improving or using Ekiga, especially in the ProgrammingParty &
Installfest parts of the meeting, & b) just learn or talk with other
members, in the other parts of the meeting.

An important part of the current ProgrammingParty part of the meeting is
to improve our knowledge of, & the sw for, VOIP technology, to improve
the VOIP communication experience for people attending the meeting
wherever in the world they are.


2) Two of our local attendees at the Jan meeting had Apple Macs.  What
is the time schedule, if any, for providing a Mac version of Ekiga?


3) About 1 or 2 months ago, a friend who know more about VOIP than I,
recommended I use the Ekiga 2 in KUbuntu 8.04, rather than E 3.  In your
opinion, is E3 now more suitable for general VOIP use than E2?

Thanks.  :)
