Hi Eugen,

I agree that openmcu, simph323, .. would probably not be worth the effort on 
their own.

However t38modem, asterisk, yate and gnugk are worth the effort.

The issue is that h323plus and opal.  Ideally h323plus would be upgraded to 
current ptlib.

I am not sure why h323plus and opal are co-existing. However if as Diana 
suggests perhaps it is to do with the maturity of h323 support in opal.
