FreeSWITCH

Hello, again. This past week in the FreeSWITCH master branch we had 90 commits! Most of the features for this week went toward the verto communicator and are: created a source map file, created the reset banner action, floor and presenter badges, and locked icon in floorLocked status, added an About screen with version information and links to FS.org and added a link to Confluence with documentation for VC, and made mute/unmute audio/video clickable. Other features this week include: refactoring the local_stream API to be more consistent and add auto complete, compatibility with Solaris 11 process privileges, improvements to the way FEC info is detected within frames by adding support for ptimes higher than 20 ms for FEC detection and improvements to jitter buffer debugging in mod_opus.

You’ve seen the presentations, you’ve asked your questions, you have the resources, now it is your time to shine by using the sponsor APIs to create something exciting! We want to see what you can do! Bonus points for each API you can incorporate! Go check out the APIs now to get a head start on the competition and get those creative juices flowing! You have less than two weeks to prepare!

Sponsor APIs: FreeSWITCH, Tropo, Kandy, Twilio, Plivo, and more…

IPv6 and why you should deploy it ASAP: John Brzozowski, Fellow and Chief Architect, IPv6 at Comcast, Bill Sandiford President of CNOC, Member of the board at ARIN.

Think you know about SIP? Do you know enough to beat the competition? Flowroute is hosting a SIP themed game of Jeopardy! Put your brain to the test and come see how much you really know!

Do you like all things games? Well, then this is the game for you! But there is a twist! Before you can win the game you must build it! Using your choice of language or API you must build a game! There will be three categories of DTMF-u; Tic-tac-toe, DTMF pattern recognition, or Freestyle. You could build something that plays a random DTMF sequence, receives player input, and then either continues or fails the player. Or maybe a WebRTC based game of tic-tac-toe? Or surprise us! Have fun with it! Creative ways to fail a player may give you bonus points. The top three games will be played by everyone and the winner of each will take home a prize! All gaming bots will be screened via a Turing test to ensure no unintended apocalyptic consequences.

Alright, now is your chance! You have been playing with the code all day and this is your chance to show off! We want to know what you’ve done and how you did it.
