Hi All,<br><br>I'm ready to work as Volunteer for this project and ready to take any port what ever this group feels good. I'm working with Open Source from last 4 year (*Nix) , 3 Years Cisco and 2 Year Open Source VoIP Asteriks, SER etc. Deployed so many SER in commercial environment (Bingotelecom US, Thincksimplicity CA, Hotel Bloomigton US, Tpad UK and many more to go). Very good experience with Auto Installer. If group feels that I can be worth to this project then I'm ready to take some part.<br>
<br>Kind Regards,<br><br>Arun<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Feb 24, 2008 at 8:23 PM, Greger Viken Teigre <<a href="mailto:greger@teigre.com">greger@teigre.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

Ok, let's clear up some misunderstandings here:<br>
1. This is an open-source project, people contribute where they feel
they get the best output for their efforts. This holds for existing
contributors, as well as for any person who would like to start
contributing. The freedom to just act is one of the great things about
open-source...<br>
2. People's time is thus volunteered, not controlled by someone.
However, some people, like me, are able to connect shared interests and
facilitate efforts not possible by a single individual, and in general,
it's quite easy to get people to respond if you have concrete questions.<br>
3. Coordinated efforts, like a release, documentation, and SIP Express
Bundle require somebody to create a timeline, coordinate the various
efforts, and in effect be a project manager (though more a project
coordinator...)<br>
4. Based on signals from various sources, I tried to rally people
behind the SIP Express Bundle. To bootstrap that effort, I documented
everything (and thus functioned as a project coordinator) at
<a href="http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project" target="_blank">http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project</a><br>
5. I felt the response on the bundle was quite good, but unfortunately,
nobody stepped up as a coordinator. If I had taken that responsibility,
my time would effectively be consumed and other activities would suffer.<br>
<br>
So, how do we get the Bundle going? First of all, somebody has to take
ownership of <a href="http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project" target="_blank">http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project</a>, break down tasks,
recruit volunteers, and define requirements and questions/issues to
resolve. We can create a new project on <a href="http://tracker.iptel.org/" target="_blank">http://tracker.iptel.org/</a> to
keep track of things.<br>
<br>
In that process, there will be questions and problems of technical and
other nature. As the initiator of the bundle project (call it a
sponsor if you like), I have committed to act as a "switch", and I will
thus help out by answering, connecting, and pushing through decisions
in the <a href="http://iptel.org" target="_blank">iptel.org</a> community where I can. <br>
<br>
If people have interests in a SIP Express Bundle and are willing to
commit time to get it running, we can do this. If not, and everybody
is just waiting for some established developer or contributor to answer
their needs, I'm afraid that does not seem likely. Their priorities are
probably elsewhere. Unfortunately, similar to commercial organizations,
we can only take on more work if we get more resources ;-)<br>

I am still hopeful. <br>
<br>
We appear to be waiting for someone person who is experienced enough to
take project leader - coordinator role.<br>
<br>
I have been building and learning SER from inside (sources). I have
several prototypes running that I have build and have run some
testing. I am approaching the level of experience for deploy &
test & documentation for enterprise level folks.<br>
<br>
However, I do not yet have the experience to define requirements for a
total bundle. For that we need slightly more experienced folks to make
some judgements, to put out some proposals, and reach some
consensus.<br>
<br>
I am still hopeful.<br>

We started this thread few months ago. Havn't seen any progress since
then. Is this still alive. <br>

<dd>>Hi guys,<br>
</dd>
<dd>>I have been playing with the following idea:<br>
</dd>
<dd>>Create a ready-to-run OS image with everything that is
needed
for<br>
</dd>
<dd>><a href="http://iptel.org" target="_blank">iptel.org</a>
apps pre-installed + a
complete installation of:<br>

<dd>>* SER 2.0 (release)<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* rtpproxy<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* SEMS<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* SERweb<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* maybe sipsak, some monitoring tools, etc<br>
</dd>
<dd>><br>
</dd>
<dd>><br>
</dd>
<dd>>The idea is to create a small script 'config_iptelorg' for<br>

<dd>>configuring the installation to your needs. You should
then
be able<br>
</dd>
<dd>>to download the ready image, boot it, go through the
script and
have<br>
</dd>
<dd>>an up and running <a href="http://iptel.org" target="_blank">iptel.org</a> proxy

free SIP service in

<dd>>Some questions to you:<br>

</dd>
<dd>>* I was thinking about using Ubuntu 7.10 server as the
OS.
Any<br>
</dd>
<dd>>thoughts/preferences?<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* Should the image be an Amazon EC3 image (you could use<br>

<dd>><a href="http://www.rightscale.com" target="_blank">http://www.rightscale.com</a>
and get it running in no time with 10<br>

run
with<br>
</dd>
<dd>>free VMware Player?<br>
</dd>
<dd>>* Other suggestions/comments?<br>
</dd>
<dd>><br>
</dd>
<dd>>I could need some help with this, anyone interested in

a<br>
