Other softphones

The free softphones in my Linux distribution are Linphone, Kphone and Minisip. None of these are tied to any particular provider. Gnomemeeting and Gaim are developing SIP plugins. Why yet another SIP client?

Why not help the other projects? One thing that would be very welcome is the ability to start SIP sessions from Jabber and add that functionality to clients, then look into extending it to also support iChat's and Google Talk's ways of doing it. That would be useful.
