Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages This is a pre-emptive wish for google talk's voice support. It would be great if the kopete developers could implement the voice-caht portion of the google talk service. Specs havn't yet been released for it. However, as soon as they are released, this would be a great feature to support. More information is available at http://www.google.com/talk/developer.html
Google is using the XMPP protocol http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Google+Talk+support *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 111418 ***
Does the other bug include the VoIP-like services as well? I saw it, but thought it was just talking about the text-messaging portion.
sorry.
Heh. It's all good. I bet the typo didn't help that much, either ;)
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. ***
This JEP is also interesting regarding VoIP: http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0111.html
The only thing we can hope is that Google release the JEP for their voice system soon, and also hope they are using a free voice codec.
According to the google talk blog, someone already started documenting the voice protocol before they thit (what a lazy people on google, shame on them): http://googletalk.blogspot.com/
http://code.google.com/apis/talk/index.html This appears to be the library needed. Hurrah!

Just to be clear: this wish has the name google in it, but now it should be clear that this has nothing to do with google anymore: jingle is now a standard of the jabber foundation, so it is a wish for implementing the official extension of the jabber protocol. (OK, google is still the most important player because they were the main force behind developing this standard - but now it is a standard and we hopefully there will be soon other jabber servers which will implement this ability).
I changed the name of this bug report to reflect the new status of Voice support. Here from Roland Wolters duplicate bug(for information only): Here is the press release from jabber: http://www.jabber.org/press/2005-12-15.shtml The links to the two specs are linked inside. Here is the google code site: http://code.google.com/apis/talk/index.html Here are the developer information at googles page (developer guide): http://code.google.com/apis/talk/about.html Here is the sourceforge page with the libjingle library: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libjingle
there is now support of jingle in the dev-0.12 branch http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Kopete%20Jabber%20Jingle
One thing which is very important for all KDE-folks: there should be artsd support (if possible) because most who use KDE use artsd (I'm not aware of a possibility to replace it for example for apps like konqueror's netscape plugin system).
