<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As the deployment of the iptel.org ser package has
increased, the number of questions being asked on the 'serusers' mailing list
have also increased, a significant proportion of them from people who are just
beginning to comprehend the usage of ser and the associated
modules.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A group of experienced ser users have decided to
help the community and are working on a 'Getting Started' document that will
detail how to deploy a working ser environment and then configure it to support
authentication, MySQL, PSTN Gateways, NAT and many other
facilities.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The same group have also noticed that creating a
common repository of files and modules that support ser is also greatly needed.
This is not a replacement of the iptel.org and cvs.berlios.de sites or the
serusers list, but an extension of their existing capability to support the
practical side of deploying ser into live environments.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is hoped to release the first draft of this
'Getting Started' document into the community within the next few
weeks.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The community site is already now open at </FONT><A

will appreciate this work</FONT></DIV>
