Following up on some posts here a few weeks ago about a gathering of Asterisk geeks at the upcoming OSCON in Portland. There are a bunch of tentative-sounding "We ought to meet heres" and the like. Is it appropriate to try to set things up a bit more specifically at this point? Thx. B.

Hi, I'm thinking about attending OSCON 2009 with some other people from Mailtrust and having some kind of an informal Dovecot meeting nearby. We could for example talk about what Dovecot would need to work better in your system, like missing features or if some things are annoyingly difficult etc, or just general talking and socializing. If you're interested in joining, send me a

Hi all, Sorry if I should be posting this elsewhere--I couldn''t find an Instiki specific mailing list, but the Instiki site is down. I wanted to mention that my friend Tim Lauer and I are going to be doing a short "high order bit" talk at the O''Reilly Emerging Technologies conference, describing a particular use of Instiki which we came up with:

Here in Sweden, it's supposed to be springtime. A wonderful time of the year, with sunny skies and wonderful weather. Almost summer. Today, it's not. It's winter all over again with rain and only 3 degrees celsius outside. Better to stay inside and write a weekly Asterisk newsletter :-) This week's topics: ------------------- * Looking beyond Asterisk 1.0/1.1 - what's up? *

In and after that talk there was some discussion with Steve French about using the same framework for testing Samba, so I thought it might be worthwhile to post about the framework on this list. We've also just put out a new 1.6 release of Crucible; I've attached the release notice below. The

First, what does one do with an IPC object? I originally thought this would be a module that you mixed in but it appears to be a class. Second, does anyone have a good example of how to use win32-event (using the CVS version)? I
