[Freeswitch-users] Re- Freetdm version inside FreeSWITCH

[Andrew Keil]

Vallimamod,

Thanks for your comment.  Hopefully this will be cleared up in the coming two weeks as I am currently in touch with their R&D team in India where the freetdm is managed (as opposed to the wanpipe etc.. which is done in Canada).

Once I have clarification and timeframes I will post it here.

I also wish to see what changes have been done internally at Sangoma to the freetdm pack, so this is clear (instead of just a new revision being lodged into FreeSWITCH without change notes).

Regards,

Andrew

Hi,

I have the same issue as Andrew with ftmod_sangoma_ss7: the last commit from sangoma is from May 1st, 2014. So that would be great!

Thank you,
Vallimamod

However when I look at the source to ftmod_wanpipe.c (for example) their version (freetdm-1.9.0) has the following header: Copyright (c) 2007-2012, Anthony Minessale II vs. FreeSWITCH current version: Copyright (c) 2007-2014, Anthony Minessale II.  Obviously there are other additions/changes done by Sangoma (including the Open Circuit alarm skipping).
