Live from Rostock, It’s Friday Night with the VUC
Posted by Zeeek/Randulo in VoIP
Will the wifi hold up? We’ll see on Friday when we try this live version of the VUC at the usual time.
AMOOCON 2010 will, as always, be interesting and fun in and of itself. It’s great to meet people in person and talk about what they’re doing.
We’ll be talking to the people who offer Blink, a free OS X g722-capable SIP client (and much more) and longtime VUC regular Tim Panton, who among other things is the reason we can connect to the VoIP Users Conference via Skype. The Skype bridge is provided by PhoneFromHere.com.
Blink is offered by AG Projects. Read more info about Blink. or download it here. AG Projects CEO, Adrian Georgescu was our guest in previous sessions. Phone from Here’s Tim Panton was recently involved in the “Telephony Island Adventure“.

Tim Panton and David Burgess describe the project to deploy the first GSM phone system to the small island nation of Niue.
The system consists of OpenSource software and (largely) commodity hardware. The project uses OpenBTS, Asterisk and USRP. Tim will try to describe (with help from OpenBTS’s David Burgess) the technical, regulatory and logistical challenges that we faced before we could make the first call. See also David Burgess’ presentation at eComm 2009.

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”.
