+1 to Jitsi.

One possible hole here is that OTR/XMPP encrypts your IMs and ZRTP/SIP
encrypts your voice and video, but nothing encrypts your signalling
for call setup. That could be solved if OTR were able to encrypt full
XMPP stanzas and you used Jingle, or if OTR were used to encrypt the
SIP messages. I am not sure if either of those is possible right now.
I'm cc'ing Emil Ivov of the Jitsi project in case he wants to reply
(or you might ask on the Jitsi list).
