GNU has decided to compete with existing VoIP solutions by developing and releasing an open source alternative stack, that is said to provide a scalable environment for enterprise-level VoIP demands. The stack is designed to emphasize modularity and extensible functionality and be integrated with web servers and databases.

This development is being sponsored by Tycho Softworks, which helps to maintain the GNU Bayonne telecommunications server.  In addition to Bayonne, the GNU telephony stack also includes the GNU RTP stack, the Open H.323 stack, and the GNU Gatekeeper H.323 call server.
