Having chaired for two years the open source telephony sessions at the VON Europe conference and at the Broadband Business Forum, I am sorry I missed the last event recently held in Rome. I asked Diego Gosmar - Marketing Director at Xenialab and frequent speaker at these events - to share his vision about the present and the future of hybrid open source communications.
Among the things the new FCC Chairman can do, Julius Genachowski might help open source telephony to become a more significant competitor in the business telephony market, not necessarily taking sides.
Chairing the “Open Source Software for the development of IP telephony†session – held in December at the Broadband Business Forum 2008 – panelists invited to share their visions about open source telephony trends reported about many hybrid case histories.
Thanks for highlighting OSS telephony! We have been working diligently on FreeSWITCH and we definitely see the value of a vibrant OSS telephony landscape. Please keep up the good work, and remind people that Asterisk isn’t the only OSS telephony software out there!
