No, it's still DAHDI, it's still a kernel module. What's not required
are any additional modules beyond dahdi_dummy, and DAHDI automatically
uses timing provided by hardware (if present) or internal timing.

However, MeetMe requires more than just timing, it also requires
conference mixing, which is provided by DAHDI in any case, regardless of
timing source. ConfBridge does not use DAHDI for mixing, and can use
non-DAHDI sources of timing, but it's still very new.
