Tipic Voip/audio implementation is based on the following Open Source projects:
- http://iaxclient.sf.net: Basic VOIP stack. Tipic added video, wideband audio and support for echo cancellation.
- http://www.speex.org: Default audio Codec. Tipic sponsored the echo cancellation improvements.
- http://www.theora.org: Default Video Codec.
- http://www.libsdl.org: Video visualizzation in TipicIM."

Sources haven't been released yet as of 15/12/2005.
I'll post again about it when the sources are out there. Still it looks very promissing.

Edit: It is actually released as open source, at least the modified iaxclient library has been released on sourceforge under the LGPL here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/tipicforge.
