True.

H.323 is mostly a session initiation protocol. And very complicated one.
IMHO it whould be much better to do whole session initiation in Jabber,
and only to send the stream in seperate connection (using RTP protocol,
which is used with H.323, SIP and probably most of other session
initiation protocols).

We just need a JEP to define VoIP session initiation in Jabber. IMHO it
should be based of SDP (session description protocol) - I have heard of
some XML version of SDP.
