Hi all, Is there a standard method to start voice chat or video chat in Jabber?
MSN messenger uses NetMeeting, which is an H.323 VoIP application, for realizing voice chat and video chat. I wonder whether we can use jabber:iq:oob for staring voice chat and video chat in the following manner. The following are examples of URI pointing destination of a VoIP phone call: h323:@host.domain.org callto:host.domain.org sip://host.domain.org (Please refer to http://www.w3.org/Addressing/schemes for these URIs.) When a jabber client want to initiate voice chat or video chat, it sends the "iq" element with a URI argument pointing itself as the destination of VoIP phone call. Then the peer receives "iq" and executes a VoIP application to start voice or video chat. With the method above, I have several questions. I would appreciate it if someone can comment on them. Of course I also welcome comments on the method itself. (a) Is it allowed to use URI other than http URI in the jabber:iq:oob namespace? The specification does not explicitly prohibit such URI, but it seems assuming that URI is always http. (b) If non-http URI is allowed, what is expected action of a client receiving non-http URI? (c) There are many Jabber clients now. What they do when they receive non-http URI in the jabber:iq:oob namespace as an argument of "iq"? Thanks in advance.
