Welcome to lock_in hell Skype is frowned on in the communications industry as its not a joint standard and it tied into one company ** cough ms word cough **. SIP and H.323 (and some derivative standards) are fully supported by CISCO/Linux/NEC/SAMSUNG/ALCATEL just to name a few. There are Linux VoIP telephones on sale in Australia ( ZIP Phone comes to mind ) so avoid those nasty single company Internet things your just locking yourself for a wallet emptying experience.

Skype is proprietry/closed AFAIK, so someone woul dhave to reverse engineer the protocol. As far as other VoIP protocols: H323 - OpenH323.org has quite a few aps IAX - (Inter Asterisk eXchange) see asterisk.org, clients include gnophone SIP - (there should be some...) Asterisk is a nice VoIP and hardphone PBX, they've just released 0.7.0, many people have been using it in production environments. cheers -- Woody -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
