[GnomeMeeting-devel-list] CVS images and SIP

Hi,

Unfortunately, I'm still a bit of an IP telephony novice.

I'm keen to add a digital phone API to our helpdesk suite, and am
thinking to use gnomemeeting and Asterisk to do this.  While it appears
gnomemeeting doesn't support AIX, the cvs snapshots support SIP :)

I've RPM packaged yesterday's snapshots into our Linux distro,
(https://linux.last-bastion.net/RPC2/up2date/voip - which I can make
available widely if there's interest...), but am unsure about how to
make SIP calls.

I have an account with iptel.org, and with seconix.com, and would like
to know how to call another colleague's iptel.org sip address - it
appears to me that the url's are all being prepended with h323, and not
using SIP at all.

I'm also interested to know if someone can point me to some doco about
how to get gnomemeeting talking to an Asterisk server, and whether or
not Asterisk can do callcentre style queueing/routing or if I need a
gatekeeper (eg gnugk - recommendations?)

Our suite does have future commercial potential, and I do encourage any
expert's hanging out here to register interest in getting involved.

TIA, Alan

FYI, gnomemeeting's configure.in needs to have the pwlib and openh323
library versions updated (I believe these should be 1,9.1 and 1.17.2
respectively):

perl -pi -e
's/OPENH323_REC_VERSION="1.15.3"/OPENH323_REC_VERSION="1.17.2"/;'
configure.in
perl -pi -e 's/PWLIB_REC_VERSION="1.8.4"/PWLIB_REC_VERSION="1.9.1"/;'
configure.in

Also I discovered some wierdness in detecting IXJ support as well (my
version of cut is from coreutils-5.2.1-31):

perl -pi -e 's/openh323buildopts.h \| grep "HAS_IXJ 1" \| cut
- -f2/openh323buildopts.h \| grep "HAS_IXJ 1" \| cut -f3/;' configure.in
