[Asterisk-Users] Re: Help with GPL license of Asterisk
On Thu, 02 Oct 2003 11:26:56 -0700, Jan Rychter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Having worked with GPL software quite a bit, also in the commercial world, and having gotten some legal advice, I believe that the anti-patent clauses in the GPL and LGPL are quite possibly the biggest problem preventing the use of GPL'd software by commercial entities, much bigger than the pass on the source and the rights requirement. Not really. Certainly it hasn't stopped lots of companies big and small from releasing GPL software. As I understand it (and as my legal counsel advises me) this effectively means that if I distribute GPL/LGPL code, I have to make sure that its distribution and re-distribution is not restricted by patents (or other restrictions). No, simply because that would be impossible (both because you would never be able to program given the number of patents you would have to search, and because it is entirely probable that no software is entirely patent free). What you can't do is knowingly license some source code/software under the GPL/LGPL if you are already aware of any patent or other issues that would in any way conflict with the redistribution of that code. If the code in question contains parts which some patents lay claim to, restricting distribution, then I must not distribute the code at all. Correct. The GPL/LGPL allow no further restrictions other than that of the GPL/LGPL itself. It is needless to mention that it is impossible to me to verify that no patents (worldwide!) lay claim to the code I'm distributing and impose restrictions upon its distribution. Sooner or later I'm going to find out that I do not comply with the GPL, because I distribute GPLd code even though there are patent restrictions that apply to it. Possibly. But those same issues apply to any software whether open source or closed source. Regardless of the license used patents would still apply, and would be enough to force you to stop distributing your software without an appropriate license (and possibly fee). An example of a particularly clear case of this problem is the XviD code (http://www.xvid.org/), which is GPL-licensed. It seems to me that the authors (copyright holders, to be precise) may distribute the software under any license they choose, but nobody else is allowed to re-distribute it, because they would be violating section 7 of the GPL, as the MPEG-4 compression is (in some countries) covered by patents requiring royalties to be paid. Wrong. The authors of xvid cannot license it under the GPL/LGPL because MPEG-4 is known to have patent license issues. In other words the patent issues place a restriction on distribution that violates the GPL, hence it cannot be GPL. This is not unique to xvid, the same issue applies to any of the mp3 decoders (like xmms) which cannot be GPL/LPGL licensed which is why at the very least Red Hat has removed those programs from their distribution. If those authors want to release open source codecs then they need to either: a) use another open source license that does allow restrictions on further redistribution (I believe the BSD license falls into this category but I could be wrong). b) arrange for an exemption for any GPL software from those patents. c) implement a codec with no known patent issues (like ogg vorbis). This is an issue which is very often overlooked in the hot GPL debates. However, in the commercial world, it is possibly the most important one. Not overlooked, it is just not an issue. Conclusion (IMHO of course): if you have the choice, use a license that is OSI-compliant but does not have the anti-patent clause. Or has it phrased differently. It all depends on what your goal is. Remember that the GPL also offers protection to companies.

[Asterisk-Users] Priority Voicemail
I am relatively new at Asterisk but have a 2-machine system running with the developer kit (FXS/FXO cards), some Cisco SIP 7960's and a Audiocodes MP-104 SIP gateway. I would like to fix a couple of the voicemail boxes so someone can press some numbers such as 911 and get sent to a priority voicemail box. This different voicemail box would weed out the normal calls from a special call. How would one approach this? My initial guess is that you have to give an opportunity to do this before you enter voicemail or maybe allow the user to exit the voicemail before leaving a message and then send them to an auto-attendant. Any good ideas or examples would be greaty appreciated! ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Then there is the weather related noise introduced in old analog links, and then there is the whole analog loop.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Anyone else use Audacity for prompts?
I have had to work on some files recently with a similar problem. It seems that when a file is recorded in 16 bit and converted to 8 bit, the clarity is lost. I have found the following ways the most productive: 1)Record through the voicemail system then import and edit them afterwards. As long as you use a good quality channel, this operates well. 2) Use sox with -t oss /dev/dsp as the input and a gsm file as the output. -r 8000 for the sample rate and -b for 8 bit.

[Asterisk-Users] Remote control IVR
Hi I work at a small company that has some IVR solutions that use Dialogic hardware for everything. Everything is written in C++ using MS VC++ using the Dialogic API and runs only on Windows. Being the rebel that I am, I would like free myself from Dialogic. To do this without porting all our existing code to run on Linux I was thinking of controlling the Asterisk from a Windows machine running our existing code. i.e. making an API similar to the Dialogic one that would control Asterisk over TCP/IP. Has anyone done something like this? Or does someone have has a good idea for implementing such a thing? I am still familiarizing myself with Asterisk but as I understand it you can add functionality to Asterisk through the AGI interface and by creating a loadable application. Which one would one should I use to solve my problem? Does an loadable application give you more control than an AGI script? I would be very thankful for any advice/tips/sample code.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Remote control IVR
Hi Ivar- I was in a similar position, doing mostly IVR apps, and having written lots of Dialogic-based code. The approach I took was to re-write some of my more popular applications in Perl and use Asterisk's AGI interface. However, if I were in your position with lots of applications to convert, I might consider writing an API to control the Digium hardware directly. (I'm not sure how hard this would be). There are likely licensing issues to overcome - open source vs. proprietary code etc, not to mention access to Digium's hardware documentation. Most of the asterisk code seems to be dedicated for the purpose of making connections between ports, ie: PBX functionality including VOIP, and everything is driven by their dialplan which is not always ideal for IVR applications or outbound apps. My Perl scripts run fine for IVR app's but most of the asterisk code is not used. A Dialogic API emulation would be pretty cool. Cheers Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc.

However, if I were in your position with lots of applications to convert, I might consider writing an API to control the Digium hardware directly. (I'm not sure how hard this would be). There are likely licensing issues to overcome - open source vs. proprietary code etc Just to clarify the GPL, there are no licensing issues if one combines open source with proprietary code for one's own use.

[Asterisk-Users] Echo Cancellation
I have been struggling with echo cancellation for the last few days. It seems to me that it would be useful to start up a technical discussion of the issue so that we don't have to solve the problem empirically. My system is SIP (Grandstream) = Asterisk = Adtran TSU600 =FXO =POTS. From what I can tell from testing on my system the echo has the following characteristics: 1) It varies over time. It is worst at the start of a call and after periods of silence. From this I conclude that the echo canceller is adaptive, adjusting delay and amplitude based on real time signal analysis. 2) The echo is only heard on the SIP phones, not on the far end of the POTS connection. In spite of seeming somewhat mysterious at first, I concluded that this is actually the expected behavior. Note: Voice is digitized at SIP phone, transmitted (with delay) to the FXO card and converted to analog. The analog signal is placed on the 2-wire POTS line, where it loops back to the analog receiver in the FXO card and is digitized and sent back to the SIP phone as an echo. The POTS end hears no echo because there is no pathway for the echoed packets to get back to the POTS. From this, it seems to me that the ideal place to deal with the echo would be at the point of conversion (from A to D and back), since there would be virtually no delay at this point and it would be simpler to determine the correct amplitude correction. If this is the case, then it explains why adjusting receiver and transmitter gains would aid in cancelling echo, with the caveat that it should only work in those cases where the Rx ant Tx gains that are being adjusted are those which are right at the A/D and D/A converters. In other words, adjustment of these values in Zaptel.conf should have no effect if I am using an outboard channel bank. What I would like is for the real experts to jump into this discussion, lay out the real theory and technical details of the echo cancellation used in asterisk so that we can all make more intelligent attacks on the echo problem. How about it? Stephen R. Besch ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] direct-inward-dialing (DID)
It's pretty easy, in your extensions.conf. If your DIDs are in a range, you could set up some pattern matching to take a block of incoming DIDs and map to extension numbers then dial or hand off to the dial'n'voicemail macro thing. If your DIDs are non-contiguous, you'll have to set up a separate entry for each one. Example: 456-7000 is your main number and you have 7001 to 7099 as DIDs: exten = 7000,1,Goto(AutoAttendant|s|1) exten = _7XXX,1,Macro(yourdialmacro|${EXTEN}) ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Start...
If u are using the latest CVS then i suppose that u don;t need to do anything except configuring h323.conf for the ip address of the h323 gK.Or u can also use oh323 channe driver available from www.inaccessnetwork.com . The default sample works fine for test purposes.
