[Psi-devel] Jingle

[Kevin Smith]

Hi,
	In Jabber Council yesterday, the Jingle protocol was accepted as  
standards-track. The Jingle protocol is the result of interactions  
between various people in the Jabber community and the Google Talk  
guys over the last months.

This is the spec upon which the Google Talk client will soon  
converge, which basically means there is a spec for voice interop  
between GT and other Jabber clients. As detailed in the JSF press  
release above, lots of people have promised support for the Jingle  
protocol in upcoming development, so in everyone's interests, I've  
added Psi to this list as well. This is a pretty big deal and I hope  
we'll be seeing open voice support across the Jabber world and beyond  
soon. What this means for Psi itself shall become clear to us over  
time but at this moment, I think we can safely say that the future  
looks quite exciting.

Best,
/K
