Vovida's VOCAL Softswitch Freed
bko writes: "Our software, VOCAL, won a Computer Telephony Magazine award for Product of the Year (it's at the bottom of the page), mostly because they liked the idea of Open Source Voice over IP software. Well, we've finally been able to release all of it (not just part) at our website. CVS access coming soon (we hope). Currently compiles on Red Hat 6.2 and Solaris, diffs accepted for more OSen (I'll do FreeBSD when I get a chance). Since the site is vague about what's in VOCAL, try this Technology Overview (sorry, pdf) for more info. Basically, there's a working VoIP softswitch in there, under a BSD-style license." Open Source Telephony software is a good deal all around, so this is quite nice news. (See also this story about David Sugar's Bayonne Project.) -
