I am seeing a need for sip audio transport that connects natively with

jack. Not just telephone SW, but the higher quality streams as well (as

used by EBU for example). There probably needs to be some good

documentation that explains to developers the difference in philosophy of

jack compared to desktop applications. For example, a jack application

_should_ open jack ports when the application first starts up and not

close them until the application closes rather than opening the port just

when it is needed for sending sound. This is important for routing and

setting levels and adding effects and... In fact, with the switch over of

most desktops to pulseaudio (remember no flames :) ) even desktop use apps

could remain connected for as long as the app runs. (probably not possible

for things like browser plugins though)
