?Now that Joshua had the kindness to respond, I see here a big disconnect between Digium and the VOIP industry. 99% of the VOIP entrepreneurs like me would need to avoid proxying the media. Would would Digium support and bring in with such fanfare a channel like PJSIP that lacks the only thing that 99% would need to do business in an efficient manner? I mean people like me buy and sale billion of minutes every day, and most of my peers gravitate towards Opensips and other solution that do not touch the media. Yesterday I had to roll back my sleeves and go back to the old sip channel. I would love to see Asterisk-PJSIP to find a way to act like a proxy. This would turn Asterisk into a real wholesale business tool, which is not, so far. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It's just fundamentally designed differently and better performant for that scenario. Asterisk isn't the best solution for everything everyone needs or wants, and that's okay. There are other projects (like those already mentioned) that are a better fit, and Asterisk can even play a part in there as an application server. I'm a firm believer in using the right tool for the right job even if it means that Asterisk isn't the right fit. Frustrated users are something I never want to see. -- Joshua Colp Digium, Inc. | Senior Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - US Check us out at: www.digium.com & www.asterisk.org

I must be one of the 1% then because I'm a VoIP entrepreneur and I've had no need to do such thing.> <snip> I mean people like me buy and sale billion of minutes every day" </snip>Granted, I don't "buy and sell billions of minutes every day"... By my calcs that would require some 11K+ channels running 24X7, and that's just for one billion per day! So I'm dubious of the claim, and that in turn makes me dubious of the quoted 99% figure too.
