Package strvoip-0.9.2.3 was released under GPLv2 2007-06-24. This release is the third separate release of the OpenSS7 STREAMS VOIP package. Some of the components in this package were formerly present in the strss7 package. Various networking drivers are provided as well as CDI, DLPI, NPI, TPI and CCI header files for VOIP operation. The package contains the necessary manual pages and other documentation for VOIP components in a separate autoconf tarball.
The OpenSS7 STREAMS VOIP package includes kernel modules, SVR 4.2 STREAMS drivers, modules, libraries, utilities, test programs, daemons, and development environment for the development and execution of OpenSS7 STREAMS VOIP applications for the SVR 4.2 STREAMS environment. This is the third open source release of the OpenSS7 STREAMS VOIP package. This release contains modules and drivers formerly only available with Commercial releases of the strss7 package and which are only recently available as open source with the release of this package. With OpenSS7 Master Package release openss7-0.9.2.D, the VOIP components were separated from the strss7 package and placed in this package. Not all of the VOIP components previously part of the strss7 package have been strapped into this release. Components will be re-validated against Linux Fast-STREAMS on a module-by-module and driver-by-driver basis. See TODO in the release, or Schedule, in the manual, for information about the release schedule. The major component first available is H.323 call control. h323(4) is a STREAMS multiplexing driver that links tcp(4) or sctp(4) streams to form an H.323 Gatekeeper. Subsequent releases in 3Q 2007 will include the additional full H.323, SIP-T and GCP drivers with conformance test suites. This package is currently incomplete. It is being released as a reference point for the community. If you are interested in completion of this package, contact <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. This release is a maintenance release providing support for recent distributions and tool chains. Major features since the last public release are as follows: - Dramatic performance improvements enabled by Linux Fast-STREAMS. - Support build on openSUSE 10.2. - Support build on Fedora 7 with 2.6.21 kernel. - Support build on CentOS 5.0 (RHEL5). - Support build on Ubuntu 7.04. - Updated to gettext 0.16.1. - Changes to support build on 2.6.20-1.2307.fc5 and 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 kernel. - Supports build on Fedora Core 6. - Support for recent distributions and tool chains. This is a public beta release of the package: it deprecates previous releases. Please upgrade to the current release before reporting bugs. Please see README-alpha in the release. As with other OpenSS7 releases, this release configures, compiles, installs and builds RPMs and DEBs for a wide range of Linux 2.4 and 2.6 RPM- and DPKG-based distributions, and can be used on production kernels without patching or recompiling the kernel.
