Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] FreeSWITCH Wikipedia Article<br>
<br>
The problem from their eyes is that its not a 3rd party writing it, its not
even hosted on a 3rd party site. There are some that misunderstand policy
vs guidelines and what is and what isnt acceptable. For example the part
about the caveman and all could probably be gleaned from the way back machine
as an authoritative source for 3rd party confirmation that the webpage did have
a caveman cutting wheels saying 'there are a lot of wheels we might as well use
some' they just deleted it because there wasnt a 3rd party cite. <br>
<br>
Also, it has been requested that all FS affiliated people do not post on the
article itself, instead post what you think should be added to the talk
page. <br>
<br>
My guess is that it will ultimately be deleted, and that in 2-3 months,
providing there are articles published (not on blogs!) by "reputable"
(computerworld was deemed non-reputable because a mod hadnt heard of them -
sigh) sites that discuss the various aspects, then it can likely be
recreated. It will get deleted again if its just put back without new
cites - see the YATE history of calltech deleting it because 2 days before it
got deleted (he is the one that deleted it, openser, callweaver all the first
time too). <br>
<br>
These articles can be helpful regardless of whether or not it ever makes it
into wikipedia. <br>
<br>
The articles should be on:<br>
* performance<br>
ken is doing what I hope
to be a replicatable performance and benchmarking test suite <br>
others should do that as
well, perhaps following his methodology to some extent<br>
<br>
the more impartial these
tests are, the more open the information is on the test conditions, the better
the results <br>
be prepared however,
because it ALWAYS happens, that someone will attack the test criteria or
methods used, this is actually a good thing<br>
(if you can weed out the
attack from the meaningful reasons why it happened). If people point to
flaws in the testing, you can incorporate them <br>
into new tests, which
dont have those flaws and come up with an even better benchmark.<br>
<br>
* features <br>
need a good write up of
what FS can do, what comes with it, maybe 'sound bites' from tony and a few
others. This should be in plain english <br>
as best as
possible. That way non-techies can understand it better, which generally
makes for a better article anyway.<br>
<br>
I would guess that not
more than 20% of the article should be sound bites, because that tends to slant
what is being presented <br>
independant authors need
to write more about their opinions and support that with facts, rather than
just quoting someone for 90% of it<br>
<br>
* development philoposy <br>
FreeSWITCH[tm] is a
library, yes it comes with a small exe to load that and launch the core, but
its a lib and can be embedded (key fact overlooked) <br>
FreeSWITCH[tm] has an abstraction
layer that prevents module cross-dependancy (I cant find ANYTHING that
discusses that)<br>
<br>
Tony you care to chime
in on a few more dev philoposy things, since I am sure there are more <br>
<br>
* Other libs that FreeSWITCH[tm] created<br>
openzap<br>
teletone<br>
stfu (if its generic
enough to be useful elsewhere - jitterbuffer lib)<br>
dingaling<br>
others?<br>
<br>
No single article has to be on, and in some cases its better if they arent on
everything. They can be 1-2 page shorter writeups that discuss some
aspect and how that interrelates to other things. From what I listed I
see 15 more or less unique articles that can be written which all complement
each other, and when taken as a whole give a much better and bigger picture of
what FreeSWITCH[tm] is and how its helped the open source telephony community. <br>
<br>
If we get articles written and published in many places two things happen, one
it starts to generate a buzz about the project, which can help enlist others to
help write code, documentation, add-on programs, etc, and two it helps to
establish that its a real program with real qualities that while we can say it,
it doesnt seem to be catching hold. In addition the more unique sources
that we have the better it seems. If there are only 3 writers that ever
write about something it doesnt seem as persuavasive as if there are 300 :) <br>
<br>
Dont underestimate the power of being a freelance writer - many publications
will accept articles and publish them if they are well written, which can help
you get started if you want to be a writer, help get your name out as an
authority on some subject, if you want that. And at the same time help
what you write about :) <br clear=all>
<br>
<br>
And finally lets not forget that there is a spanish freeswitch, russian and
perhaps other language pages that can be created on wikipedia. On <a
href="http://es.wikipedia.com" target="_blank">es.wikipedia.com</a> , <a
href="http://ru.wikipedia.com" target="_blank">ru.wikipedia.com</a> and perhaps
other places FreeSWITCH is linked in, but there is no page created yet.
So speaking english isnt that big of a thing. I did come across some
portuguese articles on FS in the last couple days, from some brazilian paper
that did a write up, I however couldnt understand what was being said, so I dnt
know the context. <br>
