Hi I wonder if this application really would require one to use rtcomm . One
could use phone
control methods available using dbus[1][2] .

As far as I understand all code written for gsoc has to be open ... and
shared with google
at the end of the project . However I do not see this as a problem . You can
  always use
API calls etc from a closed source project whats important that your own
code is open .
In this case I think dbus interface should be good enough to send and
recieve messages and calls.
All other stuff can be done using gstreamer etc ...
