Hello,
starting to continue the discussions here on mailing lists about some of the approached topics during the last IRC meeting -- there will be couple of them.
The one now is about finding and deploying a ranking/rating system that could eventually help community members to make decisions easier in regard to what components to use in their voip systems.
The need was exemplified by user verticelo with the dificulty to decide what KEMI scripting language to use. While maintaining all the app_xyz are expected to be easy, at least I know that for those I created, the arguments were also from the perspective of the community. Like what others are using, so one can expect good assistance, hints and share of knowledge via community forums. This can be also extended to related tools, like what people use for shared IP high availability of kamailio, preferred database servers, ...
This email is to ask if those that didn't participate to IRC devel meeting find such system useful and, if there is a positive feedback, is anyone aware of some OSS that we can deploy on kamailio.org for such purpose? It should be something that allows posting a topic (title and short description) along with a list of answers/options (each can be again like a title and short description) and provide a way to rate the options (like, thumbs up, starts, ...), eventually allowing also comments for each option. I guess it sounds a bit like stackoverflow ...
Being users related, the email is sent only to sr-users, let's keep the discussion on this mailing list.
Cheers, Daniel
