What do you all think of renaming IAX2 as: Telephony Authentication, Signalling, and Transport Exchange (TASTE) "TASTE" is easy to remember and has a sort of ironic relation to "SIP". Is it took hoaky? Mark
IAX is short and I like it. Besides if that additional '2' irritates you then anyways in the near future when IAX2 is working fine ppl will switch eventually to IAX2 and then we'll refer to IAX2 as IAX ....

Mark, you're a darn good coder. . ... ;-) How about "TIP", Telephony Internet Protocol. Or is that to close to Sip?

I like it. It's better than STUN. *grin* On Thu, Mar 13, 2003 at 09:19:11AM -0600, Mark Spencer wrote:> What do you all think of renaming IAX2 as: > > Telephony Authentication, Signalling, and Transport Exchange (TASTE) > > "TASTE" is easy to remember and has a sort of ironic relation to "SIP". > Is it took hoaky? > > Mark > > _______________________________________________ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users >
Finally, a question on this list I feel qualified to answer :D I like it. Keeps the name from being confused with other computer-related acronyms (a buddy of mine once asked why on earth I kept referring to AIX as a VoIP thing... Surely, he said, I had to know that it is an Operating System. It took us a few minutes to realize that he had misheard my references to IAX). TASTE... Sounds good to me. Opens the door to new odd conversational elements like "I can surf the web, but I can't TASTE anything". I like the ironic angle... And no computer acronym is too hoaky, so long as it is memorable and innofensive (IMHO). -Matthew Farley On Thu, 2003-03-13 at 09:19, Mark Spencer wrote:> What do you all think of renaming IAX2 as: > > Telephony Authentication, Signalling, and Transport Exchange (TASTE) > > "TASTE" is easy to remember and has a sort of ironic relation to "SIP". > Is it took hoaky? > > Mark > > _______________________________________________ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users-- Matthew Farley <asterisk@wheatstate.net>

I still like my original idea, SVP - Streamlined Voice Protocol. I think the trick to naming IAX2, is to encourage the thought of streamlined and efficiency. If people want a feature-rich and bloated protocol, they'll run H.323, SIP, etc .. IAX is all about performance and resource utilization. denon At 09:19 AM 3/13/2003 -0600, you wrote:>What do you all think of renaming IAX2 as: > >Telephony Authentication, Signalling, and Transport Exchange (TASTE) > >"TASTE" is easy to remember and has a sort of ironic relation to "SIP". >Is it took hoaky? > >Mark > >_______________________________________________ >Asterisk-Users mailing list >Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com >http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I'm in favor of "TASTE" myself, though Mark's take on "LIVE" has the all-important "I", to establish the use of this protocol over IP networks, which is an important part of the protocol and conceptual structure, yes? Perhaps "ITASTE" with the "I" standing for the obvious "Internet".

I like the name IAX, only because I want to get "call piggybacking" working and call it pigbIAX (pronounced "pig beaks"). :-) If I were to chose a new name, TASTE is probably the one I like the best...

When you get tired of SIPping you can upgrade to TASTEing... How do we go from that to Asterisk? Searching for taste though isn't going to return favorable VoIP results, not that sip is great - but iax / iax2 is pretty distinct. I do like taste though.
