Believe it or not: #deltachat is growing audio/video calls starting with the currently rolling 2.22 releases ... A few people already had two hour long stable calls :)

Calls are an experimental option while we continue to work on reliability, UX/UI revisions, and configuration of TURN servers on #chatmail relays and in clients.

We want calls to reliably work across all major platforms, networks and phones, including #UbuntuTouch

This is a really exciting development.

Will calls be 1to1 only, or will group calls be supported?

@RussSharek only 1:1 for now. Once this is fully stable and mainlined (non-experimental) we'll see about group calls. On Desktop you can already do several calls next to each other to simulate a group call :)

The 'one to many' approach. :)

@RussSharek @delta so we're to need some cheap mobiles and dolls. then each call can connect to a doll and we can set them around a table and have a tea party.
