Hoi Hoi,

I know Jitsi is Java, but it's open source and from my experience it's 
quite full featured and mature.
Plus it supports PulseAudio, it handles contacts better (Google, LDAP 
and even MS outlook) and does Video calls (together with XMPP chat).

That said, I dislike Java (it's fat and slow) and usually try to avoid 
it if better software are available, is porting Java more complex or 
inefficient than C?
