[Freeswitch-users] Alternative Debian package builder

[Ken Rice]

Debian Packages... Why don¹t you guys all get together on the FS conf
bridge, and lets get everyone working together to get these done in a common
way... Hows Say Noon Eastern on Tuesday for 10 Eastern on Wed (an hour
before the regular weekly call) to get all you guys in 1 bridge to nail this
down.
