Ekiga (formely known as GnomeMeeting) is an open source VoIP and video
conferencing application for GNOME. Ekiga uses both the H.323 and SIP
protocols. It supports many audio and video codecs, and is interoperable
with other SIP compliant software and also with Microsoft NetMeeting.
It still needs some love but having it in-tree will ease people testing.
Some things are known not to be working yet...
Network part was intensively tested using the H.323 protocol through an
OpenBSD gnugk proxy, with Ekiga running OpenBSD/amd64 and a Polycom v500 as
endpoints.
this applet will only work if we run with securelevel -1 (and start another

The GNOME Scan project aims to provide scanning features integrated
throughout the GNOME desktop, similar to printing. The GNOME Scan
project consists of a C/GObject library upon which are built standalone
applications and plugins for various programs.
The application and plugins are called flegita.
Note:
gnome-scan is still in its early stage. It is not a drop-in
replacement for xsane or alikes (yet); it more suited for for mass
acquisition and ADF scanners.
There's an issue with image enhancement which is being worked on
upstream and the gsane backend may not give good results on all
scanners.
