Bells of Jingle

December 18, 2005, 1:05 am

As a further update on my previous post about Jingle support, we’ve been progressing at a fairly rapid pace and as described in our Jingle branch wiki page we now have Jingle audio calls working both from Psi to Psi, and from Psi to and from Google Talk. Hopefully this means we’ve got the interface with libjingle working ok, and any other client that comes along using libjingle will interoperate just fine. We can but hope. Now that the linux code supplied with libjingle works, we’re looking at other platforms; first of all Mac OSX.
Please not that this is not a guarantee that the jingle branch is stable yet, it’s certainly not, but it’s getting better :)

According to the following post Gizmo has libjingle implemented and working with Google Talk.

Whether libjingle is in the currently released version of Gizmo or not i don’t know, but it might be an idea to contact them and test compatibility between Psi and Gizmo.

The problem with Gizmo, as I understand it, is that users are unable to connect to any server but the gizmo one. Since the gizmo one doesn’t currently syndicate with the Google Talk servers, and their users can’t connect to GT directly, they can’t make voice calls with Jingle.
One user in http://forum.gizmoproject.com/viewtopic.php?t=1064 reports, however, that because Psi can connect to the Gizmo servers, he has Jingle from his Gizmo account in that way, which is pretty cool. (We’ve also contacted Gizmo to ask about testing interop with their private code, as shown in that thread)

Well, jingle is interoperable with SIP, so that problem’s a no-go. As for only experts being able to run psi-jingle atm, that’s partially true; althought it’s not that hard to set up, libjingle and psi-jingle are both still raw and unsuitable for production use. If you want production ready systems, you should wait for a release.
