<p class=""><b><i>FreeSWITCH</i></b> is currently celebrating its 10th year as a public open source project!<br></p>
<p class=""><span class="">As we continue to push the envelope of open source communication technologies we have started to expand our policies and tighten up our development practices. </span></p><p class="">We have begun packaging <b><i>FreeSWITCH</i></b> for popular Linux Distros and are working on improved distribution for Mac and Windows as well.<br><br>We are working hard to have more timely release schedules and separate development versions and current release versions. <br><span class=""><br>The harder we try to make these things possible, the more difficult the logistics become. </span></p><p class="">We are calling out to our user base and our community to help in any way you can.</p><p class=""><span class=""></span></p>
<p class=""><span class=""><b>If your company uses <i>FreeSWITCH</i>, Here are the best ways to help:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">1) <b>Become a member of the Friends of <i>FreeSWITCH</i>:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">As a project sponsor we’ll put your logo and information on our site and for a recurring monthly or quarterly contribution you can help us to improve the project by paying for maintenance positions for the community.</span></p>
<p class=""><span class=""><br>2) <b>Visit </b><a href="http://freeswitch.com/"><span class=""><b>FreeSWITCH.com</b></span></a><b> and explore the commercial support options:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">The funds we get from paid support also helps fund many aspects of the project.</span></p>
<p class=""><span class=""><br>3) <b>Donate any unused equipment or let us run a VM in your data center for mirrors:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">We’re always looking for more build and dev servers.</span></p>
<p class=""><span class=""><br>4) <b>Allow your employees to contribute some of their resources to helping with the project maintenance a fixed number of hours a week:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">If your employees spend a lot of time on <b><i>FreeSWITCH</i></b> anyway, let them work on the project as well.</span></p>
<p class=""><span class=""><br>5) <b>Sponsor the employment of a community member:</b></span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">Hire them and allow them to work for us or donate the amount necessary for us to pay for someone.</span></p>
<p class=""><span class="">We currently are in need of some documenters, testing engineers and bug marshals and project managers.</span></p>
