get things rolling.<br><br>First please take a look at the project page:<br><a href="http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project" target="_blank">http://www.iptel.org/bundle/project</a><br><br>Step 1 here, I'd like to verify a headcount of people working on this<br>
project as of now. This doesn't mean people can't join up later, and it<br>certainly doesn't mean that I'm going to expect you to put more time<br>into this than you can commit, but we need to know where we stand.<br>
<br>Currently, on the project list, we have:<br><br> *<br> Jai: testing and installation work<br> *<br> ram: testing<br> *<br> SIP: testing (and now project management)<br> *<br> Jiri: debian, oob<br>
*<br> Mike: testing and documentation<br> *<br> Stefan: SEMS<br><br>Are the people listed here still available to do these particular tasks?<br>Has anyone else volunteered time/resources on this project that hasn't<br>
been listed here? If so, shoot me an email, and I'll add you to the<br>list. We need a people inventory so we know what roles we're missing.<br><br>For instance, I've heard a few people mention that they'd be willing to<br>
donate a server to the cause so we have somewhere to test things upon. I<br>don't have those people listed, but that's certainly an area we're going<br>to need. Also, we've had varying reports of which direction we're going<br>
-- ISO or Virtual Machine. For now, I think we should concentrate on an<br>ISO as that's going to be the most attractive to people for building a<br>ready-to-go hardware appliance, and it will probably be a little less of<br>
a headache for creating a drop-in installation. However, I also think a<br>virtual machine should be on the list in the future, and once we get an<br>ISO ready, creating a virtual machine from that configuration should be<br>
relatively straightforward.<br><br>However, on the list of people, I don't see anyone down for scripting an<br>install -- a kickstart disc or what have you. That's another area we're<br>lacking. If anyone has experience in that area, shoot me an email and<br>
I'll add you to the list.<br><br>We need to focus. For this reason, we'll start small and work from<br>there. Do NOT expect this first SER bundle to have every feature you<br>could imagine in it, and don't get discouraged if your favourite feature<br>
is missing. As the project grows, we'll most certainly be adding<br>capabilities and allowing a tailored install. But for now, the goal<br>should be to get things running and working first in a simple format and<br>then add on from there.<br>
<br>Having a bundle like this is perhaps the biggest step we can take toward<br>bringing SER to the masses and finally breaking down some of those<br>barriers that have kept people out of the project.<br><br>I'm looking forward to working with all of you on this project!<br>
