Hi,

The story is easy.
The OpenH323 team decided to quit OpenH323 in favor of Opal. Since some 
people still want to use OpenH323 there is a team which started h323plus.
Now our software which is Yate doesn't work with nither Opal or h323plus 
because both are unstable or in the best case have serious performance 
issues.
I have no idea how in the future things should go, but there is an 
additional issue. The basic library is PWLib, which is not compatibile 
for both OpenH323 and Opal.
The thing that will make my life easier in enterprise installations will 
be to have 2 PWLib's versions, one for the latest stable OpenH323, and 
one for Opal as a development branch.
The h323plus is also not stable yet, and they still change kind of a lot 
of the API.
