Hello again!<br><br>Another busy week in the land of FreeSWITCH. As you
know we have been doing some work on the FreeSWITCH project's
infrastructure. We are happy to report that this work is essentially
complete. Thank you for your patience in this process. We've experienced
intermittent outages but thanks to the efforts of Brian West and
Raymond Chandler these have been kept to a minimum. We also thank Ken
Rice for his hard work during this time. His knowledge and experience
have been invaluable.<br clear="all">
<br>Last week we had a very interesting <a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2012_10_17" target="_blank">discussion</a> from Chad Engler about his <a href="https://github.com/englercj/node-esl" target="_blank">nodesl</a> library - a connector between node.js and <a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Esl" target="_blank">ESL</a>.
Chad describes himself as a Web developer learning the telephony side
of things. However, we were all impressed with how much knowledge he had
with using ESL given the relatively short amount of time he's been
working with it. <a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2012_10_24" target="_blank">This week</a>
we will be looking in on some Windows-centric ways of handling
real-time data and related PBX items. The following week, on October 31,
we will be hearing from our friends over at <a href="http://www.redshiftnetworks.com/" target="_blank">Redshift Networks</a>.
They will be giving us close-up look at some of the worldwide SIP
attacks that are being perpetrated against FreeSWITCH and other IP
telephony servers. <br>
<br>On a personal note I would like to thank everyone who volunteered to be a technical reviewer of the new edition of the <a href="https://www.packtpub.com/freeswitch-1-0-6-build-robust-high-performance-telephony-systems/book" target="_blank">FreeSWITCH book</a>.
I was overwhelmed with just how many people who are willing to
volunteer their time. Packt Publishing will be contacting those who've
been selected for this important job. This is a great community and we
are all glad to be a part of it.<br>
<br>Take care and have a great week.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Michael S Collins<div>ClueCon Team<br><div><a href="http://www.cluecon.com" target="_blank">http://www.cluecon.com</a></div><div>877-7-4ACLUE</div></div><br>
