My concern is that for the end-user this is undermining the usefulness 
of Ekiga.net, and therefore adoption of Ekiga as a SIP client. I have 
tested *four* different Mac OS SIP clients from behind a NAT router, and 
all four of them cannot and will not connect to Ekiga.net:

- Jistsi (aka Sip Communicator)
- Telephone
- Blink
- X-Lite 4

For the end-user, I can easily see this as a case of interoperability 
with Ekiga users potentially not being worth the effort, so move on to 
something else. It makes evangelising Ekiga for me (and SIP as an 
alternative to Skype for example) very challenging, when the promoted 
back-end service is broken with regards to cross-client interoperability.

Some further discussion about this with a view to knowing if it can be 
resolved would be really useful at this point.
