I sent an email on the debian-devel mailing list about the way Debian chooses which softphone to distribute:
This is not abotu including. This is about including in the default install.
And the basic issue is that GNOME doesn't provide one, and Debian's default is mostly GNOME's one.
How about fixing the issue at the desktop level?
GNOME does provide a softphone: Empathy. It is installed automatically with the GNOME desktop on Debian.
Despite the GNOME release-team discussion, I don't think GNOME have made any final decision to stop providing Empathy, there was more discussion on another GNOME list from October:
