Hi Peter,
(I just copy and paste a previous rely)
OpenSER (as started by Voice System) goes away due some trademark
issues regarding the name (see the web site).
The OpenSER project renamed as Kamailio.
OpenSIPS is a new project started by Voice System as the current
OpenSER/Kamailio is not able to provide for us an environment for a
quality and progressive work.
Shortly,
/-> Kamailio
OpenSER -
\-> OpenSIPS
Regards,
Bogdan
