The Gtalk protocol is similar to JEP-0166/0167, but I haven't seen it 
documented anywhere. You could analyze the network communication or read 
the libjingle source.

I thinks it mostly differs in namespaces, and Gtalk doesn't seem to use 
service discovery and requires the peer to announce the "voice-v1" 
extension in their capabilities.
