This would be welcome.  VoIP has been part of the plan from the beginning, and
there's even a draft implementation at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Push_to_Talk
and early discussion at
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/22

VoIP development is currently blocking on Telepathy-Salut, which is our
serverless communication manager.  Telepathy-Salut does not yet implement any
real-time channels (e.g. RTP), so there is no clean way to build VoIP into the
presence infrastructure when not connected to the global internet.
