Both this week’s eComm and the upcoming VON Unconference are my kind of events. Free flowing dialogue. New ideas and some of the brightest minds in the business.
Are you going?
VONCAMP, led by Thomas Howe, Carl Ford and Jeff Pulver, just added a second day. That ought to tell you that the interest and demand is there. So, don’t be a voyeur, be a participant. Sign up and deliver something good to a hungry, thirsty and very tough crowd.

Client Thomas Howe and pal Jeff Pulver are hosting the VON.x Unconference as part of this years VON conference on March 18 & 19.
The unConference comes right on the heels of eComm, so smart birds are going to stick around over the weekend between the two events. I think given the weekend is between the two big shows, we should have a Monster Mashup and find ways to mash old school telco services with new era Voice 2.0 technology…
Who’s up for that?

The OpenPBX.org developers and project participants have released the OpenPBX.org 1.2 release candidate 3, The last developer release before the final OpenPBX 1.2. So if you want to get familiar with this Open Source PBX, which was derived from Asterisk, it is time to get your hands dirty.
This release includes the highly anticipated and robust new conference bridge application called NConference. The NConference application has many exciting features such as conference dial-out and runs without dependency on any hardware timing devices.
This release drops Editline support and introduces GNU Readline as a replacement. app_conference was removed and NConference, a new feature-rich application, replaces it. A new version of generic timers providing better performance is now inthe core to support FreeBSD 6.2, NetBSD, OSX and other OS. CLI Issues on OSX are hopefully fixed now. This release adds initial support to ucLinux. Also included are numerous other small bug fixes through out the entire code.
The new Nconference conference bridge is shaping up to be one of the new crown jewels of OpenPBX.org. The new application has a wealth of features, but most importantly it works accross many different codecs and audio sample sizes.
The new conferencing application will work on all platforms supported by OpenPBX.org and will not rely on any hardware-based timers. Nconference also contains many new and innovative features such as "consultant". Consultant allows a moderator to have a helper that can only be heard by the moderator. A dial-out feature will allow moderators to call out of the conference to join new participants.
