Good morning,
The Kamailio Project now has a method of providing donations to support the project. Details below from Daniel-Constantin Mierla:
Hello!
Over the years, there have been discussions about what options could be
made available to donate to Kamailio project in order to support its
required infrastructure, administrative or development of complex
components. Creating a foundation or using a crowdfunding platform have
been explored, trying to take in consideration the needed man power and
overhead, the transparency and accountability.
To move forward on this matter, the Kamailio management team has decided
to use Open Collective, with the fiscal host Open Collective Europe, as
the platform for accepting and managing donations, more details,
including the link where donations can be made, are published at:
- https://www.kamailio.org/w/donations/
The donations should target either the support of project administration
or the development of new feature, therefore before donating it is
recommend to email to <management [at] lists.kamailio.org> providing
some details about the scope of your donation.
We also plan to discuss about it at the next Kamailio World Conference:
May 12-13, 2025, organized again in Berlin, Germany, where many
developers and members of the management board and our community get
together, being a good opportunity to clarify and decide how to use the
donations. More details about the event at:

Thanks for flying Kamailio!
Cheers,
Daniel

Greetings!
From Daniel-Constantin Mierla, Co-Founder/Core Developer:
Kamailio v6.0.0 is out – it comes with 5 new modules and important
updates to the core components and existing modules.
The increment of the first version number reflects several important
updates, among them: multi-threaded option for UDP receiving, option for
specifying a range of ports to listen to, support for expressions with
variables for most of the module functions parameters, internal
libraries are directly inked to the core, support to use cmake to
compile and install Kamailio.
You can read a bit more detailed release notes at:
* https://www.kamailio.org/w/kamailio-v6.0-0-release-notes/
Many thanks to all developers and community members that made possible
this release.
v6.0.0 brings more flexibility and optimizations across many existing
components and modules, new parameters, functions, variables and
transformations.
Enjoy Kamailio v6.0.0!
Thank you for flying Kamailio!
