I have been testing it for a couple of days now, and its been working fine in my environment for making outgoing calls through skypeout etc. Have filed a ticket for you regarding incoming call transfer to regular extensions. (http://jira.freeswitch.org/browse/MODSKYPIAX-4)
I tested and it worked for me. Maybe was the xml bug fixed by anthm? Please "make current" FS, or reinstall from scratch, and check again... If the problem show up again, reopen the issue.
I see you have been planning to release a Live CD for Celliax for some time now, and would like to offer my help with this. If you need a resource to create a Live CD, please let me know, I would be glad to help.
I would be glad to collaborate on this. The livecd has been neglected until now, and Celliax too, because of Skypiax ;-). Starting monday I'll begin to port Celliax to FS. Would be nice to have the livecd with both Celliax and Skypiax, on both FS and *. In the past I used Knoppix as a base for the livecds, maybe today we can start from Ubuntu live cd? What do you think?

Thank You !
I have been waiting for mod_skypiax to be released on FreeSwitch.

Hello FreeSWITCHers,
mod_skypiax is available for testing, feature requests, bug hunting.
I would like to ask the help of you all to make Skypiax robust and feature full on FreeSWITCH, and particularly of Massimo Cetra (CtRiX on IRC), that has developed mod_airpe (another Skype endpoint).
I've written a first documentation on Skypiax installation and usage at: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Skypiax and there is a Jira module at: http://jira.freeswitch.org/browse/MODSKYPIAX
So, please, test the software, edit the wiki page both for style and content, file bug reports and feature requests.
FreeSWITCH is now the platform of first development for me, so the FreeSWITCH part of Skypiax is more tested (if any) and the code is more readable compared to the Asterisk part where lot of legacy from my other projects clutter the code.
But Skypiax strive to be available as a Skype compatible endpoint for all the opensource telephony community, and in the near time the Asterisk part will be cleaned much more, and documented.
As you will see, the code is made by skypiax_protocol.c (the interaction with Skype client), mod_skypiax.c (the interaction with FreeSWITCH), chan_skypiax.c (the interaction with Asterisk).
Please consider me available for all infos, clarifications, discussions, etc.
I would like to thanks all the peoples that helped me via mail and IRC (so bad to have different timezones, isn't?), the *very early adopters*, the testers, the patchers, and you all. Particularly Anthony Minessale, Michael Jerris, Brian West, Michael Collins, Ken Rice, Seven Du, Clif Cox, Hristo Trendev, Rehan Allah Wala, Jason Garland and Antonio Gallo.
From the wiki page (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Skypiax):
WHAT IS SKYPIAX
This software (Skypiax) uses the Skype API but is not endorsed, certified or otherwise approved in any way by Skype.
Skypiax is an endpoint (channel driver) that uses the Skype client as an interface to the Skype network, and allows incoming and outgoing Skype calls to/from FreeSWITCH (that can be bridged, originated, answered, etc. as in all other endpoints, e.g. sofia/SIP).
Skypiax works in FreeSWITCH (FS) on both Linux and Windows, at both 8khz and 16khz (Skype client has 16khz audio I/O). Skypiax works on Asterisk too, at 8khz, on Linux and Windows (through CygWin).
Think of Skypiax as similar to OpenZAP for analog lines. For each channel you need an interface (a Skype client). So, for example, two concurrent calls would need two channels, and therefor two Skype clients running on your FreeSWITCH server.
If your Skype client(s) have Skype credits, then Skypiax works for SkypeOut calls as well.

Hi FreeSWITCH developers
I would like to propose to the community my plans, so we can discuss and coordinate efforts.
I developed a couple of channel drivers for Asterisk in the past (works on both Linux and Windows), and I would like to port them to FS and further enhance them.
The two endpoints are: - Skypiax, Skype compatible, makes and receives calls to/from Skype network and Skypeout service, using the Skype client as interface. - Celliax, GSM and SMS endpoint, makes and receives voice calls and SMSs to/from the GSM/CDMA network, using second hand cellphones and/or embedded professional devices as interfaces
My aims are:
a) port both endpoints from Asterisk to FreeSWITCH b) have both endpoints continue to support at least Linux and Windows on FS c) I would like better having most of the endpoints code working for both FreeSWITCH and Asterisk, maintaining separated the code that interface with the GSM and Skype network, from the code that interface with the core.
Skypiax, the skype compatible endpoint, is a fork of celliax, the GSM endpoint, and they share the same skeleton and logic, so porting celliax after having ported skypiax will be easier and faster :-).
Current situation and next steps: 1) skypiax (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Skypiax) is now available for testing and debugging, needs to be polished and cleaned 2) starting mid next week (I'll be back in office), I want to integrate into skypiax the code and ideas from mod_airpe of Massimo (ctrix), that has developed an alternative Skype compatible module, and coordinate any future development with him and any other interested developer 3) begin the porting of celliax to FS, aiming at a pre-beta release for Linux and Windows during February. 4) coordinate further development of celliax with any other developer interested in GSM, SMSs, CDMA, IDEN, AT commands, FBUS commands, embedded devices, audio sampling
I am gmaruzz on #freeswitch and #freeswitch-dev, you can find more info at www.celliax.org.

The livecd has been neglected until now, and Celliax too, because of Skypiax ;-). Starting monday I'll begin to port Celliax to FS.
really grateful that skypiax was given priority though :) its really very useful.
Would be nice to have the livecd with both Celliax and Skypiax, on both FS and *.
In the past I used Knoppix as a base for the livecds, maybe today we can start from Ubuntu live cd? What do you think?
Certainly. I second on using Ubuntu live cd platform for this.
here are a few links to the relevant documents https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch Thanks Gourav
Thanks for the links Gourav. We'll give it a shot as soon as the Celliax port to FS will be over :-) btw, the "calling 1000" problem with skypiax is fixed: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Skypiax#Dialplan.2C_what_to_add_to_default.x...

No more needed since now on, for svn rev after 12064 or for upcoming 1.0.3RC2 and following.
