bluescreenfree.blogspot.com— I'm writing a little podcast production application, and would appreciate hearing from anyone's experience in producing podcasts, and working with VOIP software.(Skype et al)

Thanks a lot j_bellone that's very useful. I'll check it out. As far as audio goes, the only thing I want to make sure of is that the protocol (which it's looking like will be a custom one) can handle dropped packets properly, so that the sound isn't glitchy. I also need to make sure it can traverse NAT without any trouble. So far it's looking like neither one of these will be a problem. I hear what you're saying about hyping though. ;-)
I use skype for podcasting. To record I use a third person on a linux box. That machine has to use vsound (<a class="user" href="http://www.zorg.org/vsound/index.shtml)">http://www.zorg.org/vsound/index.shtml)</a> to record the sound coming from skype. I use this command: "vsound -n -v -d -t -r 44100 -f savefilename.au /usr/bin/skype". But if you want a wav (I use audacity to edit so it doesn't matter) you could drop the -n and change the filename to: savefilename.wav .

I'm curious SmrtJustin how has it worked for you. Have you run into any difficulties running the software, or has everything been smooth sailing?
