Hi Michael
I have a small production instance and two test setups. I bought the first book and was very impressed by the detail though could have done with a bit more about fifo etc but maybe it was thick enough :)
I m from a nortel/genband carrier voip / SBC background looking at integrating more advanced features into the network and i have so far never experienced so few interworking issues.
I heard today that one of our customers is trying to hook one up to the network in order to carry out proper testing as PBX
So
1. I would be pleased to proof read and test what I can.
2. Do you have an interop doc that i could complete if you don't already have it as proof that it was tested with a nortel/genband cs2000?
Have a good evening
Thanks
Marc
Mike,
Thanks for checking in! I'll add you to the list of people who receive the draft. I have a nice list. :)
As for my name, I definitely am of Irish decent. My father's paternal grandfather emigrated from Ireland in early 20th century. I suppose with a name like "Michael Sean Collins" I'd better have at least a little Irish blood. :)
Thanks,
MC

Michael,
I probably cannot help much with your current "proofing" needs, but, I'm
offering!!
- I've never installed FS anywhere - but I will be doing so in the
next few days (under Ubuntu server, 8.04/10.04).
- I am a "proofer" (with the "R"!!) for a few linux pubs, the best
known being "FullCircleMagazine.org".
- I'm a bit of a PITA regarding syntax, spelling, punctuation, etc.
- I got the FS book a few months ago - very good publication, though
I would have liked a few chapters on legacy telephony technology,
products & services, and converting to FS, etc...
- Formally, I'm an electronics engineer (digital), but I've been
full-time programming since 1968 - started in IBM then, on various
Assemblers.
So... if I can help.... I'll be very happy to oblige.
I'm in Dublin, Ireland, so my other query would be where that Collins
surname came from, but that's for another thread ;-)
Very best regards, and very many thanks for the huge efforts - by all of
you - into the FS project...
- Mike Kennedy
