[Asterisk-Users] Release Announcement: HooDaHek 0.7

Version 0.7 of HooDaHek, the CallerID Notification System for Asterisk, has been released. This is the last version with this database schema; the next will be breaking things into many more fields of information, including a lot of custom actions for calls (sending calls to VM by CLID, ignoring calls, etc.)

Also announcing the new HooDaHek website for the files, docs, and more information:

http://www.hoodahek.com

Details about Version 0.7:

HOODAHEKBOT:
- Added in Jabber support.
- Added in SMS support for US Cellular, Midwest Wireless, Verizon, and AT&T phones.
- Added in email support. You can now have notifications emailed anywhere. Handy for EmailToSMS gateways and/or pager alerts.
- Added a command, "last", to HooDaHekBot's vocabulary. The "last" command, when typed with no parameters, will show you the last incoming phone call. When typed like, "last:X", where "X" is a number, it'll show you the last X calls. IE: "last:10" will show you the last 10 calls.
- Fixed a bug with the Month being off on the call notification.
- Added signal handling for proper cleanup on exit.
- Added in massive debugging and logging for AIM connections as well as more error checking for disconnects, etc.
- Changed the sorting of the results of the "name:" and "phone:" commands to be sorted by alpha and number.
- Redid the entire configuration section of hoodahekbot.pl because it was long and incomprehensible.

HOODAHEK_DBHANDLE:
- Switched from interfacing with the 'mail' command to using SMTP to notify of a new addition to the database.
- Formatted the phone number now in notifications. Changed the wording and subject slightly.

GENERAL:
- Changed the GRANT statement in the SQL file so it wouldn't grant permissions on anything more than the CDR database.
- Decided to release HooDaHek under the "MIT License", which allows for free redistribution and modifications, for any purpose. Knock yourself out.

Enjoy.

[Asterisk-Users] SCCP support is making good progress

Hi folks,

whoever owns a Cisco phone and is unhappy about slow firmware,
incomplete XML support etc... should really have a look at Sergio
Chersovani's rewrite of chan-sccp!
It is in fact far away from any sccp-channel drivers we used to know
just half a year ago. Sergio did a complete rewrite and meanwhile it's
not only running stable with asterisk stable and CVS - it's also very
feature reach and supports almost any feature, the real Callmanager has
and a few more. But the greatest advantage is - one can use the native
Skinny firmware for the Cisco phones. And almost any Cisco phone is
supported.

Phone support:
Fully / almost fully: 7970, 7960, 7940, 7914, 7920, 7910, 7905, 7902,IP Communicator (new softphone)
Basic / untested: 7936, 7935

Some features:
Monitored speeddials (busy lamp field) on 7970, 7960, 7940, 7914, IPC
Call forwarding
Call waiting
Do not disturb
Park / Pickup
Autoanswer (1-way or 2-way) per dial parameter
Ringer control per variable
Highly configurable

[Asterisk-Users] PhoneCALL v2.7 goes MultiLingual

Hello Everyone!

PhoneCALL version 2.7 http://www.vecsector.com/phonecall is finally approaching, which will be a major improvement over the past releases thanks to everyone's input & feature requests!
One of the newest features to PhoneCALL is the ability for the entire interface to be translated to any language you want/need. We currently have guys working on a Spanish & Russian language file. It works by auto-detecting your language settings of your browser, and by selecting your language.

The language file is rather simple to edit (if you are bilingual *grin*), and I'm asking for help translating PhoneCALL to your language of choice.
Here is a sample format:

///////////////////////////
// GENERAL
//////////////////////////
ALL==All
ADD==Add
EDIT==Edit
DEL==Delete
FIELD==Field
VALUE==Value
NAME==Name
DESCRIPTION==Description
TENANT==Tenant

If you are interested, please contact me & I'll get you started on a language file.
We'd love to get as many languages as possible! :-)

Thank you for your time!

Digium to release uber cool channel bankesque pci 2.2 card

from: http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=product_detail&category=hardware&product=TDM2400P&tab=details

From their Press Release:

"The Digium 24-port card offers the highest analog density available in a
PCI card and can scale up to 48-ports with two cards and two slots," said
Mark Spencer, president of Digium. "With its flexible scalability features,
our 24-port card is the best hardware card available for small and medium
businesses looking to build an inexpensive, sophisticated VoIP telephony
solution without compromising the use of multiple PCs."

The Wildcard TDM2400P replaces the requirement for a separate channel bank
and T1 interface cards while offering superior echo cancellation on both FXO
and FXS interfaces. The quad-FXO and quad-FXS modules are interchangeable
allowing the combination of interfaces up to six slots for 4-port FXS or FXO
modules. With this new card, small and medium businesses can benefit from
features such as high density in fewer PCI slots and an industry standard
50-pin Amphenol connector for easy installation.
