One page you can look at is this one:

This is a comparison matrix of all of the existing Asterisk based conference apps including app_confcall which is my enhanced version of app_meetme I wrote before I started the FreeSWITCH project.
AH, ok. Thanks.
Most of the features from app_confcall were ported into mod_conference.
Any left from the above link that aren't?
Besides the ones listed mod_conference also has the following differences (or at least the ones I can think of) :
*) Pure software implementation (no hardware timing interface) *) Direct integration to FreeSWITCH TTS abstraction for on-demand text to speech. *) Ability to transfer one or more parties to a new conference on the fly. *) Programmable Relationships between callers, A B and C in the conf so C can only hear A but not B etc. *) Presence integration, connects to BLF , jabber buddy list etc. *) Mappable DTMF keys to a common list of functions or to events for external controls. *) Fully controllable mute/unmute etc from EVENT SOCKET interface. *) Ability to record to shoutcast (with help from mod_shout) *) Video from speaker with the floor broadcasted to other callers. *) Support for 8k 16k and 32k audio mixing with resampling to mix unlike rates.
We're thinking of a hosted conference service with variosu billing formats and are accessing FreeSWITCH vs MeetMe. Looks like FreeSWTICH is way on top. What about LDAP integration? Thanks, Gavin. -- http://www.suretecsystems.com/services/openldap/
