asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Asterisk::LCR - Least Cost Routing for Asterisk

Hi List,

I'm glad to announce Asterisk::LCR 0.02, a free/GPL, simple, modular 
least cost routing AGI engine for asterisk. It's written in Object 
Oriented Perl and aims at being extensible, documented and well tested.

Features:

- Imports rates from NuFone, VoIPJet, LiveVoIP (more providers can be 
added through writing extra Perl modules).

- Supports pluggable rate comparison strategies. Currently only the 
'Dummy' rate comparison module is implemented.

- Supports extensible 'PSTN locales'. i.e. you can send french numbers 
and use US carriers and the translation from 'french PSTN locale' to
'US
PSTN locale' is done automagically for you.

- Supports pluggable dialing strategies. Currently, sequential (cheapest 
to most expensive) and simultaneous (dialing simultaneously the 2 
cheapest providers for example) are supported.

You can download the software and take a look at the docs on this page:

http://ykoz.net/intl/lcr/

There's no mailing list for this yet. If anybody is interested in the 
project, setting one up for me would be nice :)

Best Regards,
Jean-Michel Hiver.

I've been implementing my LCR in dialplan logic which has been working
very well for me, but I'm excited to see someone releasing an AGI
application which does this. I'm glad someone else was thinking about
this too! I'll be looking into the software and see if I can't
integrate it with a couple of my providers.

Thanks,

This module requires these other modules and libraries:

  FreezeThaw


Importing VoIPJet rates...
Importing NuFone rates...
Importing LiveVoIP rates...
Building LCR tree...
Can't locate Petal.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

Cleaning up...


It seems Petal.pm (maybe a part of FreezeThaw???) is missing on my 
system. Where can I find it?

Have a look for other providers at:
http://www.geekgazette.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=26


It looks nice, ...

BTW, VSP Start looks also nice, .. but I did not find out where to 
download it.


Good job!!!

bye
