Shouldn't be so hard, right? But there's human nature, even if the corporations get to save, like, 100k worth of licenses and hardware and other costs it is very hard to get them to spend a little back to the community which helped to achive that goal. I think my first, very ambitous goal to make the sofia rewrite a personal long-term hobby is not going to be very realistic, because of my daytime job and my private life. But I will try to persuade my employer to make at least a little contribution, as I really want this in FS, maybe we should * make it a bounty project * try to bring in some big sponsors (who are the biggest companys using FS anyway?) * make some awareness in the voip scene?? seriously what else can be done to get the estimated 100k to become reality? I really want this feature in FS! :-) best, -- Raimund Sacherer - RunSolutions Open Source It Consulting - Parc Bit - Centro Empresarial Son Espanyol Edificio Estel - Local 3D 07121 - Palma de Mallorca Baleares On Aug 31, 2009, at 7:57 AM, Jason White wrote:

I know there has already been some discussion on several fronts of atleast getting the core and several other pieces to where they need to be for stateful failover and I'm not sure if its been mentioned here, but sofia is going to be a bit of work and estimates run in the 100K USD range. Now if we could get a get a couple of corporate sponsors to help here it would be great.
I agree. Perhaps some of those corporations which are saving money over proprietary solutions by using FreeSWITCH, and who also want the high-availability functionality, would be ideal sponsors for the work.
