Hi list;
I'm new to FreeSWITCH, I'm working with for 6 years with Asterisk and 10 years in VoIP (Cisco). I need a reference guide to start working with FreeSWITCH. I download the official documentation, it would need some other configuration examples and dialplan sip device for calls.

Welcome to FreeSWITCH! We think you'll like it. Just remember that it's different than Cisco and Asterisk. (By "different" I mean "more powerful, better thought out, more flexible, and way, WAY cooler" :) ) First off you might want to peruse the Rosetta Stone: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Rosetta_stone It's a place where you can get a frame of reference. If you've worked with Asterisk for six years then you've got lots of knowledge, and probably a few battle scars :) and that document helps you put things into perspective a bit. If you want a gentle intro to installing and setting up FS then check out this article: http://www.linuxpromagazine.com/Issues/2009/106/TALK-SOFT Note: the article mentions version 1.0.4 but we're really close to 1.0.5. We strongly recommend everyone, especially experienced users, to use the latest SVN trunk as it is almost always the most stable version of FS. Lastly, be sure to check out the getting started guide and the installation guide on the wiki. (www.freeswitch.org) The quick-and-dirty install guide is good for those who now Linux and just want to jump right in. -MC (IRC: mercutioviz) P.S. - we have a weekly FS community conf call and you're welcome to join: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Weekly_Conference_Call
