Michael;
Roger that. I'll check my schedule to see when I might have some time
available to make the change.
It seems as if I have some time available the tuesday after (bleep)
freezes over.
Acronym corrected. ;-)

Karl,
Yeah, this post is wrong. You've got "acronym" misspelled. Once you
fix that then I think it's all good! ;)
Seriously, it's okay to put critical information into the wiki, but
perhaps you could remove the tongue-in-cheek comments.

If that's the case, does this also apply to VoIP gateway services?
If so, I'll consider phrasing this differently:
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Voicepulse.xml
--begin--
Voicepulse Warning
WARNING!!! Recent changes (Sep 2008) in VoicePulse have limited
connect03 to only IAX termination. Please remove any entries that
you may have reflecting the gateway below from your dialplan as it
will most likely answer the call and play a message saying something
to the effect of "Your call could not be completed as dialed because
we changed our production environment in an effort to demonstrate
what bad engineering is all about. BAD is an acronymn for Broken As
Designed. Please hang up and make changes on all your switches. Even
though we shouldn't have answered the call and simply ignored it
entirely so that another gateway could facilitate your call, we FELT
it wise to seriously inconvenience you by answering the call
immediately giving no other gateway a chance to place the call.
Thanks for using our service and we look forward to abusing you
again in the near future.
UPDATE - Problem getting worse, not better 3/30/2009. I switched DID
providers because of problems w/ Voicepulse, such as echo, dropped
calls, and consistent registration problems hence calls don't get
placed and inbound don't get routed to me. Incidentally, they will
not port DID's, they'll tell you they will, but they don't.
--end--
Perhaps just saying, "stay away, far far away. Recommend this
service only to people and/or organizations you don't like or are in
direct competition with" would suffice eh?
Suggestions? Recommendations?

Funny you mention this. Many people report that the way the FS
community refers to Asterisk in docs/wikis/irc/whatever makes the FS
camp seem *less* welcoming to them. After all, they identify as
Asterisk Users and take the criticism as being kinda harsh. Most of
them acknowledge the shortcomings of Asterisk but are put off when
someone else points them out. It's crazy, I know. The thing is, I
remember thinking that too. After getting to know FS better, I
didn't
notice it as much. Nobody likes to hear their baby is ugly --even if
they know it is.
Interesting. I'd like to know what specifically turned them off. It
could be node 117, but that was written by Anthony in response to
dozens of questions about the subject. In any case, if the Asterisk
guys look at the first edition of the Starfish/TFOT book they'll
see glowing praise of Anthony Minessale and Brian West, so maybe
they'll be willing to listen to those guys since they've got so
much Asterisk knowledge. The other thing is that many people in the
FreeSWITCH community are Asterisk refugees. They left Asterisk for
FreeSWITCH because they had some sort of trouble with Asterisk. If
that comes across in the docs then we'll have to see about cleaning
that up.
At our session, and in general, I've noticed people are more
interested in hearing about FS when you don't make direct comparisons
to Asterisk. Besides, FS stands on it's own merit.
Agreed. Direct comparisons can always be slanted in any direction.
Besides, FreeSWITCH stacks up very well against a lot of modern
(i.e. expensive) equipment put out by the big boys (Cisco, Avaya,
NEC, ShoreTel, etc.).
Just what I've observed *and* my 2 additional cents.
Gabe
Thanks,
MC
