[Asterisk-Users] opencall.org is changing to soft-switch.org

Hi,

Anyone using my spandsp or unicall software please note that
opencall.org is shifting to soft-switch.org. HP have a line of telephony
products called Opencall, which were very obscure in 1999, when I
registered opencall.org. A search for "opencall" on Google back then
returned only references to theatrical agents. opencall.com and
opencll.net were theatrical sites. Now a search for "opencall" on
Google
returns thousands of hits for HP's stuff, and I have dropped to number 3 :-)

HP's lawyers have contacted me about the conflict. They say HP has
OpenCall trademarked in lots of places, which seems strange for such a
generic name. I have no wish to be associated with the HP stuff, so I
registered a new name. At the same time, I also registered spandsp.org,
so that name works too.

Regards,
Steve
