[Freeswitch-dev] New "mod_dahdi_timer" - does the community want this?

[Michael Jerris]

Sure, except obviously we shouldn't hardcode the change to mod_conference, we should make the timer an option in mod_conference config.  Toss it on out in jira.

Thanks
Mike

Because the timer for mod_conference was not synchronized to the T1 clock source, there was significant periodic on-conference noise.  The problem was not that the "soft" timer was inaccurate; on the contrary, it was a very accurate 1 mS timer in a system that had a pretty inaccurate T1 clock coming in.
