[sr-dev] irc devel meeting summary

[Fred Posner]

Greetings,

Minutes from the recent devel meeting have been posted to the wiki:
https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/devel/irc-meetings/2016a-minutes

In summary, this was a 3+ hour meeting held on IRC #kamailio -- one of
the longer meetings on record.

No current "critical" issues were open, and the meeting moved to a
discussion of for a testing framework and being able to load as many
modules as possible in a running Kamailio system. Olle Johansson
suggested a competition for Kamailio World: "The one with a kamailio
with most loaded modules running at kamailio-world gets a beer."

A discussion then occurred regarding the appropriateness of returning a
200 OK when no data exists during a xmlrpc request. The consensus seemed
to side with how we currently return data with the suggestion of moving
further discussion to the mailing list.

The Kamailio team will be looking to both upgrading the Kamailio servers
to Debian Jessie as well as utilizing a "responsive" template for the
main website; making the site more mobile/user friendly.

Kamailio 5 was discussed with a suggestion for a developers meeting in
Stockholm, perhaps in June, to hammer out the framework. Daniel was
thanked for moving forward with the Lua routing aspects of Kamailio 5
while ensuring that you will still be able to utilize the config file
(as current) without Lua. Additional languages, such as python, will be
coming. Daniel will be working on a tutorial for exporting the
kamailio.cfg to an embedded interpreter in the future.

As part of Kamailio 5, the source tree structure will be improved, most
likely utilizing subdirectories to better organize the different
elements of the software. There will also be a change in the method of
checking the database schema for compatibility with the version of
software running.

This summary represents just an appetizer of the incredible meeting that
took place. The minutes are available for you to read at your leisure
and your participation is always encouraged through the mailing lists,
IRC, as well as github.

The meeting never ends... it just continues on the mailing lists. =)

Best regards,
