I don't know if anybody is aware of this, but there's a fully open source (BSDish) VOIP server/client named Mumble -- http://mumble.sourceforge.net/ . I don't know if they have a library/API that could be used for integrating the server into other things. However, this might be something that could be integrated into OpenSim as built-in Voice. (It would require changes to the client as well, of course.)
I know that some folks use Skype or phone voice bridges to use Voice while in OpenSim, but I've found that not having the visual feedback on who's talking (voice gestures or the green lines over your head) really breaks the immersion. It'd be great to have some sort of built-in Voice solution (even better if it was spatial, but even just "global" with visual feedback would get us most of the way there). Is anybody working on integrating Voice into OpenSim right now? I know that there's something going on with FreeSwitch. Who's the expert on Voice in OpenSim? -- --Rob Knop E-mail: [email protected] Home Page: http://www.pobox.com/~rknop/ Blog: http://www.sonic.net/~rknop/blog/
