           Summary: No way to indicate outgoing call progress stages such as
                    "ringing"
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: telepathy-spec
        AssignedTo: telepathy at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: mikhail.zabaluev at nokia.com


With the streaming media channel API as of Telepathy spec version 0.16.0, there
is no way to map call progress stages available in e.g. SIP or GSM calls.
There ought to be a way to inform the client that the outgoing call is in
following stages:
- "Connecting": trying to reach the callee(s), no indication that a remote
endpoint has received the call.
- "Ringing": a remote endpoint has received the call, but the remote user has
not accepted it yet.

One more stage may be of use:
- "Initiating": the initial state of the call, an outgoing request have not
been sent yet.
