Main differences to Gemeinschaft 3.x ========================= - Asterisk was replaced by FreeSWITCH and Kmailio - PHP was replaced in favor of Ruby 3 - Test-driven development - easy install with with from bootable ISO - Security, stability and performance - all data can be saved encrypted on disk (including fax and voicemails) FAQ === Q: I'm happy with Gemeinschaft 3.x. Shall I upgrade? A: No, never change a running system!

hi giovanni
here a translation by me:
So much better than Google! Congratulations again, and please consider to make available an English version of it, a very basic and rough translation can do, then the community can do the finesses. I was attending Cluecon 2011, and the presentation about Gemeinweisen was very well received and there was lot of interest in the audience. -giovanni -- Sincerely, Giovanni Maruzzelli Cell : +39-347-2665618

What exactly is GemeinschaftPBX?
Gemeinschaft is a "German-engineered open source PBX." Previously it was based on Asterisk, however the German version of the FBI needs a "paranoia-compliant" VoIP PBX that is open source. The Amooma guys built that with FreeSWITCH, Kamailio, RoR, etc. in version 4. -MC
If it's German-engineered im sure it's quality. But is there a list of features, things it can do? On Fri, Jan 13, 2012 at 12:59 PM, Michael Collins <msc@freeswitch.org> wrote:

you can try it for yourself but it's only available in german by now. an english release is due in march. - Thomas
The German BSI is better compared to the US NSA or UK CESG than the FBI, I believe. But the 'paranoia compliance' is comparable! On 13/01/12 17:59, Michael Collins wrote:

Actually they are not a secret service. They "take care" of the security of the governmental it systems, mostly at least. Something like a gov-CERT. Regards, Georg
