Oh, yet another SIP-over-Jabber protocol, as if TINS and Jingle wasn't enough. At least Jingle has a real world implementation with actual users.

The article is surprisingly light on details for a project that seems to be in a developers only mode right now. But it seems like there is a SIP client and a Jabber client in there. How they fit together and why there's the SIP-over-Jabber stuff as well isn't really clear. The web site and mailing list archive is almost empty.

But think about how fun you can have with all this name space clutter: Zope, SOAP and now Zoep!
