Hi this is just a heads up about an opportunity for commercial
Asterisk experts. I don’t know if this even possible but don’t see
why not and it is way beyond my capabilities so thought I would pass it out to
the list. I’ve been looking into Microsoft Live Communications
Server over the past few months for one of my clients, it’s the same as ms
messenger but for closed user corporate and offers increased security logging
etc. http://www.microsoft.com/PRODUCTS/info/product.aspx?view=22&pcid=f76f83ce-1ee0-443c-a2c4-0659a66a5618&type=ovr
Anyway, great product for presence and chat etc and 2 way
voice chat but it doesn’t allow multi party voice conferencing. To do
this you have to use 2 external parties. Radvision – hardware solution minimum cost $20k Intratel - $500 a seat but only up to 8 people per
conference. As MS LCS is sip based surely it wouldn’t be that hard
for someone here to work on the LCS api’s to offer an asterisk solution
for conference rooms and multiparty voice? There would be a pretty large market
out there for a low cost option and it has a life span of at least 2 years
because MS wont be bringing in multiparty voice until 2006. Cheers, Dean |
