Sure, I'm interested. The setup I'm looking for is.. something like... Operators should login on their linux desktops, in X11 mode. (as an example) A tcl/tk application is lauched, giving the operator his work environment. This application launches a non-gui VoIP client, and will connect the agent to *, setting the agent as available for inbound calls and/or ready for outbound calls. If the agent is idle and inbound calls are available, the application should respond with a welcome screen, load caller profile information, if available, and start the correct script for the called queue. If the operator is idle, no inbound calls waiting and there are available outbound calls, the script should initiate the outbound call and position the operator in that outbound script. During any call, call transfer, put on hold, call pickup, or call recording should all be controlled by the tcl/tk application. No phone keypad should be available. After any calls, the operator should be able to use the same tcl/tk application to put himself not-ready, to perform any duties, rest, or continue to any next calls. Everything should happen without the need for multiple logins or having to press any keys or dial any numbers, besides the user login and maybe selecting the queues the operator wishes to connect to. I'm considering a bunch of small pc's, with 1 sound card each or a USB headset. (searched the web, and really don't know which has a higher quality) I can look into other equipment if anyone has some other recommendation. I used tcl/tk as an example for an application, but a web interface, even ncurses, perl+tk, ticatk or any rapid development graphical interface should/could do.
