I still don't understand the motivation for this project. If you ought to run a windows application, you use windows anyway. If you like to move to an opensource platform, you have to invest in migrating your applications anyway. I don't ge

hmm, thanks. It's probably a quite expensive license, as the default developer agreement is quite restrictive: http://www.mail-archive.com/asterisk-dev@lists.digium.com/ms... any explanation why 30% of calls were dropped?

isn't it trivial? I use this all the time

>They do talk to each other, users pay for the privilege. what exactly service are you talking about? what kind of communication, between which parties?

by xxqs 15y ago
could you be more specific? what exactly service did you talk about in the top comment?

by xxqs 15y ago
I don't think so. They have an easy to use client, and a huge user base. I guess they will also add ipv6 support as soon there's enough ipv6 adoption on the residential market. I also don't have ipv6 at home from my cable provider, and they

yes there are some services like this. I tried Comfytel about a month ago: http://txlab.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/comfytel-com-one-more-... the problem was, about 30% of calls didn't reach my skype client. I guess Comfytel uses one of thos

I'm actually talking about officially supported ways of communicating, not hacking

as I mentioned in above comment, I already pay for skype-to-PSTN calls, and I wouldn't mind paying for SIP<=>Skype calls as well

by xxqs 15y ago
yes, and I'll never run it on my voip server :)

see my other comment below. I know about SkypeConnect, and it's only usable for particular types of businesses. the win/win for sype/sip providers is only when the calls go through PSTN beween them.

there's plenty of ways to assign a numeric alias to a SIP name. For example, I run a virtual PBX with my internal numbering plan. I could assign internal numbers to skype names, for example.

this service does not allow to call a skype user from a SIP trunk. What they offer is just a regular SIP-to-PSTN service, plus a way for skype users to call into your SIP trunk. I am paying Skype for PSTN calls already. I wouldn't also mind

It's 2012, and there's still no official SIP to Skype gateway

good one, missing only one important license: CDDL

by xxqs 15y ago
of course, every such decision needs research and reading. Nothing is easy :)

it's very easy: GPL: nobody can distribute your software as a closed-source system. Nobody can also link your software with non-opensource ones. BSD, MIT, Apache: anyone is allowed to do anything with your code, provided that reference to y

then it's rather a gesture recognition :) it would be interesting to see it on a wearable computer, taking input from some gesture input devices: accelerometers or video input with markers

of course, I use scp and ssh tunneling quite regularly. I just like the concept of sshfs, will need to play with that and see how it could be useful

thanks, this is indeed very interesting. I gave a link at a Russian wearable computing community: http://ru-wearable.livejournal.com/107496.html

haha, I wrote an article exactly about this (see my other comment)

nice summary, and sshfs looks cool. here are my 2 cents: http://txlab.wordpress.com/2012/01/25/call-home-ssh-scripts/

is it a raster image recognition, or a vector/gesture recognition?

by xxqs 15y ago
thanks, but I think I stick to asana for now.

by xxqs 15y ago
thanks, this looks promising

by xxqs 15y ago
I actually mentioned it in OP :)

thanks a lot, will check that out

I don't see any reason why media companies don't offer their content on subscription. You wouldn't have to shop then. You just pay your 10 or 15 bucks a month, and you can watch whatever the content provider releases. "my friend" would be h

well, to be precisely true, Sharereactor was run by a Swiss guy, and it was indeed torn down by the police. But the guy did not get in jail: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShareReactor but Sharereactor was designed for exchanging movies ill
