Summary:
Introduction of GNOME Telephony Application Services as a new package being developed for integration of 
GNOME desktop software with small office business telephone systems.

Detailed description:
gtaps is being started as a project to provide a simple interface to help telephony enable existing GNOME 
desktop applications.  If one has a contact database or address book like in evolution, one should be able to 
click on phone numbers and have your telephone dial!  gtaps also will include a gnome applet that will do 
screen pops as new telephone calls arrive.  The initial development is being carried out in conjunction with 
GNU Bayonne representing a model free software office phone system.

Tim Ney is familiar with the qtaps proposal and the background related to this application.
