[ANN] Spice SoftPhone, a softphone GUI for FreeSWITCH
I'd like to announce the first beta release of a cross-platform ruby/tk GUI for using FreeSWITCH like a soft-phone (using mod_portaudio). It's not particularly fancy, but I needed a cross platform softphone with good voice quality that was debuggable and didn't have a ton of features to confuse the users. I couldn't find one so we built one. I've got some sparse documentation up at: http://opencsm.org/wiki/index.php/Spice_SoftPhone And you can download it from http://opencsm.org/download . It's under the MPL and I've been cleared to re-licence my other FreeSWITCH related projects under the MPL too. I've tested it on Windows, FreeBSD, Solaris and OSX (it used to work on linux, I assume it still does). Comments/complaints/bugreports welcome. It's definitely still got some rough spots (I don't think it'll run without a controlling terminal, for example), but we're going to be polishing it up and hopefully putting it in production here in the next few weeks to replace a very buggy closed-source phone we've had to endure far too long. Please download it if you're interested, the download count helps us continue working on this kind of stuff :) Andrew - opencsm.org
Andrew, On behalf of the OSS telephony community, and particularly the FreeSWITCH community, many thanks to you! We appreciate all the stuff you've given back. Thanks for showing the true Open Source spirit! -MC On Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 3:35 PM, Andrew Thompson <andrew@hijacked.us> wrote:

Andrew, if you are interested, you could check out http://www.pjsip.org These guys have build a great lib that runs multiplatform on top o PA as well and are _REALLY_ small footprint. Perfect for a client, right? Thanks, Mesquita On Jan 16, 2009, at 9:35 PM, Andrew Thompson wrote:
