The issue I am having is one I created myself. I read the JIRA, and it looked as if PDF capability would be put into it. It's not, my mistake for misreading it. Now that I have overcommitted myself with a customer, I would like to do my best to resolve this issue, which seems pretty small after reading about the existing methods of accomplishing it.
Seems that I am not alone in this need. It seems to be the right thing to do for the project as a whole, so I am willing to step up to the plate and make it happen, within reason of course. My goal would be to get it submitted as a feature of the system, and not a one off that I create for a customer. I'm open to creating the one off to get my customer through for now, with the ultimate goal of submitting it as a feature of the system. We've discussed on this list in the past about having projects like that that get funded via an escrow approach, etc. It might be a good thing for Sipfoundry to set up, a list of project that have received high votes, but which don't have strategic value to their commercial development. That way, as a community, we can look at projects that are important to us, but are not going to be developed my any commercial entity, and develop escrow type funding for development of those projects. Certainly, this method could have high value to the project, and commercial entities like eZuce as well, improving the development of features, without having to be distracted from commercial efforts to make a living - which is a critical part of the success of the project as a whole. Maybe someone with experience in these open source escrow funding applications can chime in on some methods of accomplishing this. Martin - I suspect you have some thought in this area as well, maybe you can share from the perspective of Sipfoundry and how desirable this might be?

I'm not opposed to hiring someone to develop this, and paying to maintain it should changed be required down the road. Certainly, I don't have programmer staff like eZuce does, but there are plenty of resources out there for hire, its just a matter of finding one that is suitable. I'm actually looking now. If you have someone to recommend, I'm all ears. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Douglas Hubler Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 11:26 AM To: Discussion list for users of sipXecs software Subject: Re: [sipx-users] sipxecs Fax with PDF rather than TIFF file attachments On Wed, Jun 29, 2011 at 1:44 PM, Todd Hodgen <[email protected]> wrote: > But to integrate, test and release falls > well within the goals of the project, and I believe how it should be done. ... standard FOSS response, I'm not sure if this addresses your point * Goal of project: I would say yes * Immediate goal of ezuce: not at this moment AFAIK * If you or someone you hire can get it to production quality and submit it to sipxecs, then yes, it will save you the burden of maintaining it yourself. _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/ ----- No virus found in this message.
