<p>Congrats to them for taking the risk.</p>
<p>Just as an aside, just to let everyone know, I am taking the same risk. We have invested in the same deal from sipro and will shortly be offering an official FreeSWITCH g729 module in the very near future.</p>
<p>This, of course, does benifit the project directly, because it gives a revenue source to help fund the project where naturally a 3rd party module mostly benifits users of FreeSWITCH which is, of course, not a bad thing. </p>
<p>We might have had it sooner but we've been very busy making FreeSWITCH itself and it's a matter of first things first.</p>
<p>So, again congrats guys, I hope your hardware codec boards sell and you leave a little room for us on the software side.</p>

want, which requires substantial investment in money (visit <a href="http://sipro.com" target="_blank">sipro.com</a><br>
and have a look at the up-front license fees if you wish) and time (to<br>
get the thing working across the various platforms with the required<br>
licensing) and they've presumably taken a commercial risk so to do.<br>
<br>
Hats off to them: they've taken a risk, and the project benefits<br>
immensely from it. Expecting them to "give something back" in addition<br>
would be entirely unreasonable.<br>
