I just checked, Ekiga is NOT available to users of Ubuntu 20.04!

See
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/ekiga-list/2018-December/msg00005.html

I have no position to say Ekiga is unmaintained, but . . .

It's sad.

Note that the Ekiga software is immediately available to all Ubuntu Linux
users (including Kubuntu and the like) in the normal Ubuntu software
directory. I have installed it in my Kubuntu 18.04.4 LTS system.  I have
tried to register the following SIP address at ekiga.net but I am not at
all assured that the server is functional. I also have Linphone installed
on a Windows 10 system and have likewise registered that address at
sip.linphone.org.  However due to a complete lack of opportunity I have not
been able to test either software set.   Note that I also have an older
laptop that is currently running Kubuntu 20.04, but I haven't even checked
if I can install Ekiga on it.

Since both Ekiga and Linphone claim to use the SIP protocol, then by just
switching the registration, users OUGHT to be able to use the ekiga.net
-or- sip.linphone.org server with either or both software installations.
 Also worth exploring is whether sipbroker.com is still functional and can
be used for calls between these SIP servers.  Last but not least Ekiga
claims also to use the H.323 protocol, which I haven't heard mentioned
since Microsoft Netmeeting
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_NetMeeting> disappeared from view
in 2007.

Due to a lack of opportunity for use, I don't normally run either the Ekiga
or Linphone software, thus if I were to add the following back into my
contact information block, it would  be added to the 'advance arrangement
only' section!  Also note that I don't run my Windows 10 computers until I
have 'good reason' to do so!
