Twinkle
Twinkle is a software phone for voice over IP communications using the SIP protocol. You can use it for direct IP phone to IP phone communication, or in a network using a SIP proxy to route your calls. Some of the features offered are call waiting, call hold, 3-way conference call, call transfer, and call reject. It supports STUN or a statically configured public IP address for NAT traversal. When using STUN, it will send keep-alive packets to keep NAT bindings alive. It supports ZRTP for secure voice communication.

Hi,
I have just started the Twinkle project, yesterday i was looking into the code, actually i was trying to locate where the structure for the sip header is written in the code. I am new to voip so please excuse me if i asked something wrong.

Great SIP phone!
This is the best SIP phone out there for your linux machines. I tried many linux softphones, but even though many of them are not that bad at all, they all have some small flaws (bad DTFM support, no plugin/script support, unusable GUI (Keyboard!!), strange bugs, ...), which make them unusable for *me*.
Thanks to the developers :)
