Hello again, everyone;I've been working on creating a FOSS Skype Replacement; which I am currently calling GNUChat. Currently, the program is in pre pre pre-alpha (or as I like to call it, !@#$ing buggy as !@#$!). I've been asking all of my friends and family, who avidly use Skype, which features they'd like to see in my program as well as what they dislike about Skype. I think I've gathered enough information from them to know what the "Average User" wants in a program, but I'm looking to see what GNU/Linux users and Advanced Users would want / are looking for in a Skype Replacement program.
First and foremost, this program is, of course, going to be released under the GPL and will be completely Free Software. The program is written in Java, with plans for a C++ port (mostly because one of my friends wants to have most of the same functionality for his programs). The program is designed to be similar to IRC, though have some characteristics to Skype (a GUI demo is available in the attachments for constructive critiscm).
If you have any suggestions as to what you'd like to see in the program, please either reply in this list, or email me at [email protected] You may also email me if you'd like further information about the project :)
Thank you for your time Thanks in advance for your replys! ~DeckardCain
