On the topic of #pidgin they say, amomng others, "Pidgin does NOT support voice or video". Likewise we should state on #asterisk "Asterisk does NOT support text chats". There are some awkward methods for sending some text messages over some channels (SMS in european POTS, SIMPLE and simpler texxt messages in SIP, XMMP for Jingle, and well, probably nothing in IAX. Bristuff ads even a few more bits there). But do we actually care routing those messages from one place to another? This is a major limitation of Asterisk for me. Text messages require much lower a bandwith and a text connection is much easier to setup. Hence it can work even when a voip connection is lousy. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tzafrir _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
