These versions are only available from Ekiga.org, rather than from
the traditionally used site VoxGratia.org...
Turn the previously "hidden" knobs into OPTIONS. Make ekiga accept
whatever versions of opal and pwlib are installed.
Take over maintainership, as I plan to use ekiga myself -- unlike
the current maintainer.

- This is an update of net/ekiga and net/opal. Requires the latest update to
pwlib (FreeBSD port is uptodate since one week).
This update also incorporates a new user-contributed patch,

OPAL is the "next generation" of OpenH323 that has a new
architecture. The new port is based on net/openh323 (same
author, port Makefiles very similar), so could you please:
1) make a repocopy from openh323 to opal
2) apply the patch in opal, note that old patch files are
removed, and a new patch file is provided

- pwlib -> 1.9.2
- openh323 -> 1.17.3
The decission of porting the development releases instead of the stable
releases is based upon a discussion with the openh323 developers.
They serve as a start to be able to porting newer versions of e.g.
gnomemeeting et al.
Further tweaks/improvements to them may be required when other ports
start to use these versions.
Unlike the previous versions of those ports, they install a shared lib
now. So ports which depend upon them in the future should add a RUN_DEPENDS
upon them. Additionally the build time for those ports will decrease,
since they don't need to build pwlib/openh323 each time and grab them
from the build directory.

This version adds support for the latest FreeBSD driver for the Quicknet
ISA and PCI telephony cards. These card have hardware G.723.1 audio
codecs onboard and also let you plug in a normal phone so you can
do VoIP apps with a normal telephone handset.
(it was previously in ports/comms)
OpenH323 is an H323 Video Conferencing Program, which can send and
receive both audio and video with other H323 programs including
Microsoft NetMeeting.
It uses PWLib, the Portable Windows Library and PTLib Portable Toolkit Library
from Equivalence Ltd Pty
Note: at this time I've been unable to send audio, although
audio can be received.
For video, a Bt848/878 grabber (using the bktr driver) or a Matrox Meteor
can be used.
