[Server-devel] Reschedule XS meeting for Friday Aug 15 - or 10 PM Aug 14 EST ---- was (Re: not up for Friday meeting about the XS)
feeling better now, antibiotics really work :) How about same time this upcoming Friday? Will work on an agenda w/ David on Monday. I see the key purpose of this meeting is to let you folks what additional functionality we are working on for Nepal's XS and to make sure that our additions don't conflict w/ future changes to the underlying XS. Here is the additional stuff we are looking to build into the XS over the next 6 months: 1) Customized Nepali version of Moodle 2) Mail server using Squirrel Mail* 3) Setting up a local version of Nepal's E-Library on the XS, a copy of Nepal's current E-Library http://pustakalaya.olenepal.org which uses the open-source fedora-commons repository software. 4) and more stuff that I can't remember at the moment. 5) Connecting schools through ejabberd * Some of these changes are targeted more at the teachers than the kids. We are concerned that the teachers are using the XO's much less than the kids and thus less familiar w/ them. We think e-mail is a relatively easy way to get them to use the XO to the amount of effort to get it running consistently. VoIP would be more effective but would require much more effort.

Michael ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel I'm no VoIP expert, but I played with it for a bit on different distros. Trixbox (http://www.trixbox.org/) is CentOS based and is very featureful. On the other hand, Astlinux (http://www.astlinux.org/) is very interesting in that it has a very small footprint. Astlinux runs off a CF card (64MB if I remember correctly). You can also run it off a bootable CD. All the config is browser-based, and all the config files live on a separate USB key (or any other partition). I suspect we will need something in between. Also along the lines of VoIP clients, I've been looking at IAX2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-Asterisk_eXchange) clients instead of SIP. iaxcomm (http://iaxclient.sourceforge.net/iaxcomm/) is a simple IAX2 client. On Ubuntu its current, but I haven't found any active RPMs. IAX routes quite nicely as compared to SIP. I'd be interested in seeing a sugarized iaxcomm on the XO.

thanks Michael, After we get our top priorities working consistently I will definitely take a closer look at voip and try to look up the folks at fedora.
