http://www.sipro.com/news.php MONTREAL, CANADA, July 6, 2005. The G.729 Consortium today announced that it has changed its licensing policy and will now offer licenses to use the G.729 patented technology to end-product manufacturers only. Qualifying end-products would typically include access devices, audio/video conferencing equipment, call center equipment, IP phones, IP/PBXs, media gateways, etc. makes it slightly harder ... not impossible but slightly harder. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group
