Counterpath and Digium Do It!
Posted by Zeeek/Randulo in VoIP
We will be welcoming Bria Product Director Todd Carothers to the VUC in a second segment on Jan 29th at 1PM EST.
From this press release:
CounterPath and Digium(R) Launch Asterisk-Based Multimedia Softphone
Based on open standards, Bria for Asterisk combines Digium’s Asterisk, AsteriskNOW and Asterisk Business Edition telephony platforms with Bria Professional, CounterPath’s enterprise-class, multimedia softphone. Bria for Asterisk gives users advanced telephony features, yet can be quickly set up and configured with any Asterisk deployment.
The VUC is officially testing Bria on Windows and OS X and we hope provide valuable feedback to Counterpath during this launch.

Vestec’s Kashif Kahn at Astricon
Posted by Zeeek/Randulo in VoIP
You meet a lot of great people at Astricon, and you learn a lot of interesting new things. One thing that may be of interest to you is the announcement Kashif Kahn, Vestec VP of Biz Dev, made in his presentation on speech recognition here: You can get a full license for one port of their speech recognition for $25. Kashif says specifically that they came up with this offer as a way of reacting to the feedback from our session with Digium/Vestec a few weeks ago. Good news for everyone, you can now afford to evalute the product with an unlimited license, including the API, for the price of a week’s worth of coffees at $YourExpensiveCoffeeChain.

General Discussion at AMOOCON
Posted by Zeeek/Randulo in VoIP
Audio : Download file (amoocondiscussion.mp3)
Although I managed to herd a great group of people into the speakers’ lounge and record a wide-ranging discussion, the first part was lost due to a software glitch on the recorder. It seems that the low battery level shut things down and ditched the file. The part posted here is only the second hour (heh) but there are some interesting things to hear.
Topics covered include codecs, video, Skype for Asterisk, teleconference robots, “robot Mark”, presence, stereo codecs, and lots more. One side (Zoa, Diana Cionoiu etc) rags on the iPhone, the other side says “get used to it”.

Digium Support for Asterisk Open Source Edition
Posted by Zeeek/Randulo in VoIP
Audio : Download file (TS-211605.mp3)
Randal Schwartz (FLOSS Weekly) chatted with us about paid support for Open Source software.
Steve Sokol joined us to talk about what this means to the community and to small, medium and large busines installations.
With Digium’s support subscriptions for open source Asterisk, enterprise developers and systems administrators can call on the expertise of the company that created Asterisk. Digium’s technical support team offers professional assistance with installation, configuration, and systems operation issues.
Digium’s blog has a post about this, and that sends you to the product page.
A lot more happened including discussion of Digium’s new free FAX channel that replaces drop in solutions such as SpanDSP and the eternal questions about SfA (Skype for Asterisk).
Note the name siptosis, unlike the similar word “halitosis” is pro-nounced “SIP 2 SIS”. These calls are educational!

Does Mark need an introduction? I think not. He’ll be live to answer questions and talk about what’s going on with all things asterisk (which is a registered trademark of Digium)
