Brian Reynolds on the iBook Voice System

Tim Panton’s demo on Wave showed the iBook Voice System. (Yes we’re all sick of hearing about wave but the demo was interesting and may be the wave of the future). And the wave for this session is here.

Brian Reynolds visits to explain his part in the demo.

Randal Schwartz visits Astricon

I called him an “honorary member” of VUC, but he’s actually a regular and he did get his T-shirt at Astricon. We stopped in front of the cheapest happy hour place just long enough to record this for posterity.

We Did It! Astricon 2009 is Over

Besides the few people I had time to grab, you’ll see stills of Allison Smith, Randal L. Schwartz and VUC regular Barry Kline. Allison is an amazing person when you consider how many people want to meet and talk to her (to hear that voice you’ve heard recordings of for years). She deals with it well, here’s someone who makes you feel special. Randal has always been one of my heroes and one of these days we will have to do some live video together just for grins. You’ll also get a quick glimpse of the indefatigable John Todd, aka, “tie dye man” and another VoIP hero, Olle Johanssen. Sorry Zoa, I misspelled Zoiper and can’t re-edit just now.

Astricon Wrap Up

astricon-fall-2010

Heroic efforts were required to produce this live call and edit it, and it will take patience and strong will to listen to it because of the noise and levels. We post it here because a lot of interesting things were said by participants (in random order) Tim Panton, Darrick Hartmann, Barry Kline, Philippe Lindheimer, Fred Posner, Zoa, David Duffet and whoever else wandered in.

All in all, Digium did a great job in organizing the event with compelling content, fun, good food, and a space where people with our shared interests can gather and basically bother Allison Smith for three whole days.

Astricon Meetup

We’re having a great time at Astricon, you guys should have come!

I had the pleasure of meeting Gui Vieiro the “lucky” winner of the AA50 at AstriCon. Gui recently introduced Asterisk into the IT environment. “We were a very traditional telecom team when I joined [his company] 2.5 years ago. Asterisk has enabled us to do things we could not previously do, and the AA50 you gave me will help me [...] continue to find ways to create innovative telecom solutions. Welcome Gui and enjoy the AA50!

I keep forgetting to mention it, we have a VUC mailing list, look at this page to sign up or just go to the Google Group.

Now, excuse me but it’s party time!

Zeeek and Allison Smith, "Voice of Asterisk"
