Hi, December 5th, 1999 was the initial release of Asterisk by Mark Spencer. We'll be celebrating this by gathering as usual at 12 Noon Eastern (9AM Pacific, 10 MST, 11 Central, 5PM UK and Western EU) for the VoIP Users Conference.

Yes, we mostly talk about asterisk, hardware, software, phones, people, events and things asterisk-related. Asterisk is a registered trademark of Digium. Asterix is a registered trademark of Ren? Goscinny. We never discuss that, though. Here's the short URL for sending out to others that might be interested: http://x2z.eu It lands here: http://www.VoipUsersConference.org Once again, I

Nir Simionovich is about to become a father. He will be joining our conference at 12 Noon EDT today from the Maternity Ward to talk about Amazon EC2 cloud computing with Asterisk. Nir gave a very good presentation on this at AMOOCON a few weeks ago (see http://www.amoocon.de for more on that). The advantage here though is that he'll be live with us for your questions. All the details on how

Hi all, Get your questions ready as tomorrow's VUC call will feature Shidan Gouran, CTO of Jazinga, makers of a new Asterisk appliance. Jazinga have developed a web 2.0 GUI for their embedded Asterisk appliance. We all love GUIs, right? They want to make it easy for a non-techie to setup a small office Asterisk solution. For details about the Jazinga product you can see Michael Graves'

Already Friday, the week went by in a Flash. If you haven't yet registered for a free Sipgate DID, I suggest you go do so. If you are in, or interested in the business, Sipgate has a few tricks up their sleeves and you should be aware of them. Someone from Sipgate will be joining the conference, which begins at 12 Noon EDT (9AM PDT, 10 Mountain, 11 Central, 5PM UK, 6 Central Europe) ZipDX

Hi, Few subjects cause as many arguments as "which SIP client works best?" on IRC #asterisk, voip forums, and probably the -users mailing list. I have tried most of the SIP clients available in the last 5 years, both with Asterisk and other platforms such as OnSIP.com, IConnectHere.com, ZipDX.com and the venerable old FWD (in the days when that almost worked). Speaking of ZipDX, we

Morning! This may be the "day of the dead" in some regions, but we expect the usual lively discussion today at 9AM PDT, 11 Central, 12 Noon EDT, 4PM UK and Portugal, 5PM Paris, $deity-forsaken hour down under. This Sunday, I believe the USA falls back to Standard time. Future VUC are still at 12 Noon EST. Info site: http://voipusersconference.org PSTN (724) 444-7444 enter 22622# 1#

Hi, Quoting Digium's blog post (blogs.digium.com): "The market talked, we listened, and today we?re ready to take calls, answer questions and do whatever needs to be done to make Asterisk work for our customers. It is now safe to step into the Open." John Todd and Steve Sokol will be online live at 12 Noon EDT (9AM Pacific, 10 Mountain, 11 Central, 5PM UK, and 6PM in Western

http://vuc.me Kamailio, Open SER and Asterisk walk into a bar... The bartender is Alex Balashov, someone whose posts I have long admired on this list. Alex has agreed to take us through the following areas: - Relationship of Kamailio to OpenSER project history. - What is Kamailio/OpenSER? - SIP proxy - SIP server (for certain purposes, such as registrar, presence user agent, etc.) -

Hi, Like me, some of you probably remember Jim as one of the pioneers along with Leif and Jarod. These guys "wrote the book", literally. Jim is our guest tomorrow and he'll be talking about system building, among other things. We always have a good time AND get stuff done on the Conference so come by and join us: Silently, on IRC: #voip-users-conference (freenode.net) - stop by

Hi All, At the usual time, 12 Noon ET on Friday April 3rd, we expect Michael Robertson to join the discussion to filed questions about OpenSky and Gizmo5. I have been testing all of these Skype to X methods except SIP for Skype since I have no word from them. I can tell you that we've had good results with bith Skype for Asterisk and OpenSky. In fact, I am currently accepting calls to my

Hi, I hope everyone will have a joyous holiday time. If you happen to find yourself at loose ends on Friday after the eat and drink fest that many of us will be privileged to enjoy Thursday, come and talk with us about Skype for Asterisk. Steve Sokol, who's in charge of the beta for this module at Digium, has courageously agreed to give us a report on how it's coming along. Spread this

Hi all, You may have heard yesterday that Adhearsion and Voxeo have created a new baby, Voxeo Labs. From our (non-biz) point of view, I'd recommend following the blogs: http://blogs.voxeo.com/ to see how what they do might be of interest to you and your asterisk/voip activities, commercial or private. Since I myself know little about what this all means, I've invited a lot of bright

Hi all, We've had Yusuf Motiwala from TringMe on the VoIP Users Conference before when he annouced their Flash-based web phones. Now they've come up with something that tantalizes me, VoicePHP. Sure XML is a standard and fairly easy to implement, but not as easy as PHP, which I have used since version 2 (Yup, shadesof.phtml) Here's GigOm's take on it: http://tr.im/2y4g Check

Today, Chris Matthieu, Founder & CEO of GetVocal, entered the cloud-based communications market in February, with its launch of Teleku.

Hi, We're pleased have a 25-year telephony veteran with us tomorrow, Aswath Rao. Aswath maintains that "Trapezoidal VoIP is Evil". Join us and ask questions, make comments, argue about geeky details... and maybe win a Gigaset S675IP SIP/DECT g722-capable phone with an additional handset. Those of us who have these phones like them a lot. All dial in info is here: http://VUC.me -
