I don't know how many of you are going to be at ITEXPO/Digium Asterisk World in Miami next week - I hope to see as many of you as possible, though.
There has been an interesting change in the line-up for the show, that I think bears mentioning here since it possibly will help quite a few of you in your discussions about getting Asterisk into your company. We've had the good fortune to have a last-minute keynote addition at the show, which is going to be Jeremy Wadhams from Yahoo. He's going to be talking about a Fortune 500 implementation of Asterisk across their entire network, and why they made the decision to move to Open- Source telephony for the core of their voice network. Keynote: 3:30 - 4:00 PM on Wednesday - Jeremy Wadhams, Yahoo It's not yet on the ITEXPO site, since we only confirmed this yesterday with Jeremy, who is really being a great sport for doing this on short notice. Having Yahoo giving a keynote on their multi-thousand seat installation is great news for the Asterisk community in general, and is great news specifically for other Enterprise managers who have been looking for that all-important set of examples of public users of a technology. (Enterprise tends to move in herds.) There are large numbers of Enterprise users of Asterisk, but it's always great to get a "name-brand" company who can be offered as a proponent of Asterisk. Again, hope to see all of you there in Miami next week! http://www.tmcnet.com/voip/conference/ JT --- John Todd email:[email protected] Digium, Inc. | Asterisk Open Source Community Director 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville AL 35806 - USA direct: +1-256-428-6083 http://www.digium.com/ -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
