hi giovanni

here a translation by me:

Hi

5 years by now the first version of Gemeinschaft was brought to live. I'm proud to present version 4.0 of Gemeinschaft today => http://www.amooma.de/gemeinschaft

On this occation i'd like to thank to the federal office of it security (BSI) for the development contract for Gemeinschaft 4.0 whithin the SiVoIP project. In addition special thanks to Sascha Daniels, Philipp Kempgen, Peter Kozak, Klaus Knopper und Ralf Spenneberg.

Gemeinschaft 4.0 is a huge step towards a secure VoIP PBX for everyone.

Main differences to Gemeinschaft 3.x
=========================
- Asterisk was replaced by FreeSWITCH and Kmailio
- PHP was replaced in favor of Ruby 3
- Test-driven development
- easy install with with from bootable ISO
- Security, stability and performance
- all data can be saved encrypted on disk (including fax and voicemails)

FAQ

Q: I'm happy with Gemeinschaft 3.x. Shall I upgrade?
A: No, never change a running system! But read https://www.heise.de/artikel-archiv/ix/2011/11/131 and decide

Q: How many lines of the Gemeinschaft 3.1 code were recycled in Gemeinschaft 4.0?
A: 0 lines

Q: Why no more Asterisk?
A: FreeSWITCH is better, more stable, more secure and gives higher performance. In the past all people used sendmail and now postfix is the best choice. That's the way it is.

Q: Why no more PHP?
A: Ruby on rails is much better http://www.ruby-auf-schienen.de

Q: More FAQ's?

Hi Thomas,

thanks a lot for this effort and for letting us know.

An English version would be very interesting!

BTW, have a look at the subtle but substantial errors that google
translate gives on the announcement (always funny).

Congratulations,
