Jitsi 2.0 released

Version 2.0 of the cross-platform open source softphone application Jitsi has been released. An announcement on the XMPP Foundation blog includes some details, such as: "one of the most prominent new features in the 2.0 release is Multiparty Video Conferencing. Such conferences can work in an ad-hoc mode where one of the clients relays video to everyone else, or in cases that require scalability, Jitsi can use the Jitsi Videobridge: an RTP relaying server controlled over XMPP." Other changes include support for the royalty-free VP8 and Opus codecs, and support for integrating with Microsoft Outlook. Additional details are listed at the Jitsi site.
