I've successfully used Twinkle for the last three or four years,
Using SIP since 2005 as mostly the only phone and Twinkle was always the only one that worked, despite I tried many. I never wanted to use Twinkle due to its ugly GUI but Twinkle just always worked.
I *once* had Ekiga working, but it gave me so many problems a few years ago that I had given up on it.
Exactly. I even bugreported multiple SIP incompatibilities and got them fixed in opal but it still was not enough for practical use. Maybe it has changed.
Ekiga v4 seems to have improved a number of the problems and as the Fedora maintainer I've been working closely with upstream since it's release to close out any remaining issues, 4.0.1 appears to be a reasonable bugfix release but if you do have issues please report a bug and we'll work with upstream to get them fixed. Upstream seems to have been reinvigorated of late.
