The whole idea is that the license not be tied to a specific platform. We also have had queries from 2 other open source telephony platforms regarding this. The other two that I know of may also be interested.
The only sad thing for me is that I have 19 licenses in hardware at my house, but I cant roll those licenses in :( Almost every ATA, voip phone, etc I have has multiple and I have several such devices just sitting collecting dust. > When I was talking to Diana Cionou ( YaTE girl ), I wanted something > like that.

And the best part is that if you have a network license server it would be able to use all these different products at the same time off the same license pool, with the max concurrent channels being the only limitation - well that and we were advised to not release the code, even though its out there (ciscos open G729A project for example - non commercial use only). But if someone else wants to make something compatible and release their code, more power to them. We have no problems working with the open source community on this issue. We arent selling software per se, we are selling licenses to G.729, as such we dont care what it works with, open or closed, free or commercial. The point is interopability, let people communicate over what they want, freedom and choice. > I like the code from FreeSwitch, but again if I cannot use G.729, I > stuck with Asterisk. > FreeSwitch.org doesnt do nearly as much as asterisk at this moment. They are still working on the core, and applications will need that core to function, as such freeswitch isnt really usable on the same level for all things like asterisk. But then again freeswitch did start last november or something so its still quite new. This is one of the open source projects we are working with to provide G.729 support. This thread is however starting to get off asterisk a bit, while this list isnt 100% asterisk all the time, I am thinking that more conversations about anything non-asterisk on this topic should be left elsewhere. But who am I to say. For those that agree with me I have a list set up for our system, send an email to g729-list [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe.
