Sometime next week I hopefully am going to start a document that<br>
follows my progress in setting up a FS system from scratch, with all<br>
the pitfalls and successes. A kinds of "warts and all" story.<br>
Alongside this "blog" (for want of a better word) I will also then<br>
document the steps needed to get it working (a howto guide,<br>
effectively).<br>
<br>
I am a long time * user (2004), so my mindset is kind of skewed - but<br>
perhaps that would be beneficial for other * users looking at<br>
implementing FS.<br>
<br>
Most of our config and dialplan is generated by using res_config_curl,<br>
and we use things like call listening, conferencing, parking and<br>
queues. We do use queues in a slightly odd manner (we add 1 agent, and<br>
call a local channel). When this channels is called, we use curl to<br>
get our application to return the most appropriate agent to actually<br>
call).<br>
<br>
We also use * as a power dialler, making upwards of 400,000 call<br>
attempts per month. Not massive, but not tiny either.<br>
<br>
Hopefully, this will be of use to both FS and * users. What would be<br>
great is that if other people follow my progress, and make suggestions<br>
as and when I hit a brick wall :)<br>
<br>
What would be best for this ? A blog ? Or a wiki page ?<br></blockquote><div><br>Julian,<br><br>First off, welcome to the FreeSWITCH fold! Thank you for your willingness not only to try things but to document them as well. I like the idea of a blog to tell the story. After you're done then you might consider a wiki page that is more of "just the facts, ma'am" on how you translated Asterisk configs to a FreeSWITCH setup. Feel free to ask myself or anyone here or on IRC for assistance.<br>
