We don't keep a comparison but we do have our full list: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_conference Mike On Aug 20, 2008, at 4:48 AM, Gavin Henry wrote:

OK, thanks. What about the conference web front end? http://conference.freeswitch.org/ I couldn't see that in the source?

That's not in tree but it's just a CGI that uses xml-rpc. On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 10:46 AM, Gavin Henry <gavin.henry@gmail.com> wrote:

There are ways to integrate FS with ldap, see mod_ldap. On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 10:55 AM, Gavin Henry <gavin.henry@gmail.com> wrote:

maybe you want to join #freeswitch on irc.freenode.net if you don't use irc normally there is an applet on our homepage on the right. On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 10:58 AM, Anthony Minessale < anthony.minessale@gmail.com> wrote:

One page you can look at is this one: http://www.freeswitch.org/node/100 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. Most of the features from app_confcall were ported into mod_conference. 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. There are probably more, but many of them are just inherited from the regular list of FreeSWITCH on-board features. http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Specsheet On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 3:48 AM, Gavin Henry <gavin.henry@gmail.com> wrote:

AH, ok. Thanks.

Any left from the above link that aren't?

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/

That's assessing, not accessing ;-)

The only thing that I can think of in meetme that we don't do is we don't have a moderator concept embedded into mod_conference, so that would have to be done externally.
