Re: [reSIProcate] Road map wanted - can I expect to get some help from this list?
Have you had a look at http://wiki.resiprocate.org. Although there
isn't a complete softphone you will want to take a look at the dum
library which will do most of the sip portion of the softphone. After
you look through the wiki, you will likely still have plenty of
questions.

The Xcode stuff is pretty new. If you fix it up, we'll check it in for you.

The header files in the latest subversion revision should have a fair
amount of documentation. Can you provide some details on which files
you want to see additional docs for.

Have a look at examples in resiprocate/dum/test

Not sure. I don't think the xcode stuff is used by many people yet.

xten has a softphone for mac based on dum.

this is just the style that we chose.
