Great.  And, happy to help with the documentation as you are ready for volunteers.

When we are done we will have full packages of FS 1.6 for Debian Jessie and any other platform where serious volunteering is done.
The docs for building it yourself will also mature but first things first we are working on finalizing 1.4 to its own branch and moving the video branch into master.

Craig,

I have a completely automated setup script for the video branch, which I use to roll both local dev servers (via Vagrant) and production (via Linode) — handles most or all of the niggly details you discuss above.

My intention is to remove my customizations and make it available to the community at some point in the near future. It’s seriously crazy that people hand build a server — this is 2015 for god’s sake… :P

As a novice trying to follow the documentation for creating FreeSWITCH 1.6+Video instance, I have a few questions and have noticed a few gaps in the documentation.  For experienced users, these gaps are the "obvious" steps... but not so obvious to those of us just getting started...


For consistency with the Wheezy 1.4 instructions, should the instructions have users clone the code into /usr/local/src/freeswitch?  If so, modify the install instructions to 'cd /usr/local/src' and clone the software into 'freeswitch' instead of 'freeswitch.git'

# then let's get the source
cd /usr/local/src
cd freeswitch.git
git checkout fs-video2
./bootstrap.sh -j
./configure -C

I'm curious why there is a change in the recommended parameters for ./configure
Wheezy 1.4:  ./configure --enable-core-pgsql-support
Jessie 1.6: ./configure -C


Should the 1.6+Video install instructions page replicate (or at least reference) create the freeswitch user?

Should the 1.6+Video install instructions page replicate (or at least reference) how to setup FreeSWITCH for automatic start.

The 1.6+Video page has a section on setting up Bridging from WebRTC that shows adding an extension to Dialplan.  For the novice user, it might help to A) mention the exact file (e.g. /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/dialplan/default.xml and B) mention if there is a specific place in the file where that text should go (or is it OK to just add it to the end of the file?

Again, I know some of my questions above are painfully obvious to most of you.  But they are not obvious to the new person trying to get started.  I mention these here in the hope of helping others who are also just getting started.

Thanks,
Craig
