Adaptive Asterisk

Corydon76 — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 14:16:16 -0500

I've been working on a concept over the past several months, which I call "adaptive capabilities". Some of you are already familiar with the original module that started this work, called cdr_adaptive_odbc. The idea behind this is rather simple, but the result is very powerful: instead of relying on database tables to be static representations of what Asterisk designers originally intended, make Asterisk adapt to the layout of a database table.

I've written a series of articles covering new features in Asterisk 1.4, the one-year old release that is finally getting stable enough so I can recommend it for production use to my customers. It's high time to discover 1.4 and start benefitting from all the new features in your Asterisk installation - regardless if it's an enterprise PBX, a carrier PSTN gateway or an IVR server. There's enhancements and benefits for everyone in 1.4. Read these informative articles on my blog site www.voip-forum.com.

It has been a long time since I have posted something on my blog, so here we go to start off 2008 correctly.

As many of you already know, I've returned to university to complete my software engineering degree. This is a long road, but Asterisk will benefit from it one day, I'm sure.

oej — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 08:43:30 -0600

A while ago I created a branch based on Asterisk 1.4 called "moremanager" to enhance the manager interface. During that work we agreed on the changes that are now being integrated into trunk. This will mean that trunk

Another development blog

russell — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 11:13:28 -0500

I have started my own personal development blog, which I intend to run as a more verbose look into things that are going on in Asterisk.org development. I still intend to make larger posts here. However, if you're interested in what is getting fixed and improved every week, then you might find it interesting.

Sneak Peek at New Features

While the development team is working the hardest on fixing bugs in Asterisk 1.2 and 1.4, we are also adding new features into our development tree that will eventually become Asterisk 1.6. Most of the biggest features that will make it in to this version have not been merged yet. However, I wanted to post a link to where you can go read a list of some of the features that have already been merged.

Custom Device State in Asterisk 1.4

russell — Sat, 16 Jun 2007 18:06:25 -0500

I wrote about using func_devstate for creating custom device state in a previous blog post. I was in #asterisk on irc.freenode.net last night, and there were a couple of people who wanted to use func_devstate in Asterisk 1.4. So, I decided to go ahead and port it.
