@sama @xabean seriously.

@sama it's probably too looped into iCloud and Apple logins. The spam would be out of control if not linked to Apple hardware purchases.

@sama We got @tokbox . No need.

@sama @zenmatt FaceTime used to be completely p2p until they were sued (patent). Now they use an Apple MITM to initiate call.

@sama FaceTime & iMessage are going to be the BBN of Apple.

@sama @DeMarko lawyers happened.

@sama same goes for skype.

@sama apparently Steve's keynote was the first time the dev team had heard of that idea. Presumably the last, too.

@sama maybe FaceTime is a brand they don’t want to tarnish with buggy 3rd party federation/clients with poor UX…

@sama Apple? Lol. They hate making anything freely available.
