A GObject? Because it is a clean way to create new widgets with an
object-oriented approach.

Because static variables wouldn't work in all cases (by definition of
static, they are local to a method, except if you want to make them
global). You would then end up with a mix of structures and of static
variables, which wouldn't be good either. So the CODE Policy is now to
either use structures declared at an appropriate place (could be
elsewhere than common.h), or GObjects.

Not so near, but near enough. If we release 1.00 in February/March, it
means we could also release a GnomeMeeting version with enhancements,
but based on OPAL and still H.323-only for the summer. Then we could
have SIP and IAX later.

Not really, both can be done at the same time. Porting to OPAL will only
change the endpoint.cpp, and connection.cpp files.
