GNU Telephony Stack Announced
Friday, 30 December 2005Tycho Softworks, a leading provider of Free and Open Source Telephony solutions and free software migration support, today announced support for the GNU Telephony Software Stack. Starting in early 2006, Tycho Softworks will offer and support a prepackaged GNU Telephony software stack to our customers so that developers of scalable enterprise, carrier hosted, and governmental telephony solutions can focus on developing their applications rather than on configuring the underlying platform.
The GNU Telephony stack has initially been packaged for use on RedHat and CentOS GNU/Linux distributions, and will later be packaged for Debain based GNU/Linux distributions such as Ubuntu. Support for the GNU Telephony stack will be offered for all GNU/Linux distributions, as well as OpenSolaris and various forms of BSD systems such as FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Mac OS/X. Limited support for some components of the GNU Telephony stack will also be available under Microsoft Windows.
The GNU Telephony stack will initially consists of the CAPE Framework of GNU Common C++ 2, the GNU RTP Stack (ccRTP), and GNU ccAudio; SIP support using libeXosip2 as supported by antisip.com; H.323 support through the OpenH323 stack (soon Opal); Desktop VOIP clients LinPhone and GNOME Meeting; PartySIP and Ser SIP call servers; GNU Gatekeeper H.323 call server; GNU Bayonne2 Voice Application Server; and Telephony Drivers for Voicetronix and Sangoma computer telephony hardware.
Future releases of the GNU Telephony Stack will integrate with KEWL (Knowledge Environment for Web-based Learning) to build collaborate voice and distance learning portals. Future releases will include realtime monitoring services for use by telephone network operation centers, and pre-bundled telephony applications for pre-paid calling, voice messaging, and v-commerce. Target profiles will be developed for rapidly deploying VOIP telephone systems and "telecenter" like sites.
All parts of the GNU Telephony software stack are built from packages available under free software licensing. For further information contact David Sugar (dsugar@tychosoft.com), GNU Telephony at http://www.gnutelephony.org, or visit Tycho Softworks at http://www.tychosoft.com.
