Zoep Goes Open Source

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the no-zoup-for-you dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Voipster has released their Zoep client-side VoIP engine as an open source project licensed under the GPL (now called OpenZoep) along with an OpenZoep Firefox extension. If you've been thinking about incorporating a VoIP soft phone client into your project, this article details the API and discusses how to work with the OpenZoep client."

  1. Gaim support for SIP as well by morgan_greywolf · · Score: 4, Informative

    Gaim 2.0 (currently in beta) actually has support for SIP/SIMPLE thanks to the Google Summer of Code.

    So we've actually had VoIP capabilities in open source projects since last summer.

    So... you want to be able to have a single number ring through to 10 alternate numbers at the same time? That makes no sense!

    No, actually it makes perfect sense. This is implemented in all traditional PABXes - e.g. someone phones your business and it rings several phones. Whichever is picked up first gets the call. Or another popular implementation of the same idea is hunt groups - i.e. a call comes in and it rings for a short time on one phone, if it isn't answered it rings another phone instead.
