[Kamailio-Users] Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009! - sr-users

24 Dec 2008


      Hello,
I wish everyone Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009!
Day by day, we ended another year. 2008 was full of events, starting 
with one major release and six minor releases, participation to 
workshops and conferences wordlwide, adoption in new production 
environments and acknowledgement of running platforms with millions of 
users and billions of routed minutes/month using Kamailio (OpenSER), 
check the News archive at:

There were sad events as well, including the hijacking of the old domain 
name after the rename in Kamailio, still the source forge project goes 
on, with same name, proving the genuine openser project:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/openser/
We maintained release 1.3.x series, last being 1.3.4, which still keeps 
the old name and is available at:
http://www.openser-project.org/mos/view/News/NewsItem/OpenSER-v1.3.4-Release...
Life is going on, since the latest major release, version 1.4.0, the 
project boosted in new features, a summary of what is new since then is 
available here:

An important share of effort was directed to clean the code and improve 
the stability and performance, a proof of maturity and the need to make 
the maintenance of the project easier and open for new comers. Lot of 
documentation was added in doxygen format inside the source code, Devel 
Guide was published, new developers can start new easier to enhance the 
application.
Reference moment for the future was the launch of SIP Router project in 
November - a concentration of many people with great SIP and VoIP 
expertise, backed up by huge programming experience in this field. This 
came to strengthen the development workforce, to ensure the reliability, 
to remove the doubts of what projects is better now or is going to 
develop better in the future.

So, 2009 is an year that announces already great achievements to be done 
in its first half:
- 1st Quarter - release of Kamailio (OpenSER) 1.5.0
- 2nd Quarter - release of SIP Router project as stable version
- dedicated meeting to celebrate the first operational SIP Router and 
draw future directions
With the release of SIP Router project, everyone gets access to the 
features provided by Kamailio (OpenSER), SIP Express Router and 
OpenIMSCore projects:
