RE: [Asterisk-Users] Any interest in a Canadian Asterisk mailing list?
I'd be interested in a possible mailing list for a United States Asterisk mailing list. We are in the very beginning stages of building a pilot system using Asterisk, but based on the information I've found on the internet so far, it looks very promising to scale the system to our needs. I'd be interested in know if anyone has successfully created a larger system (at least 1000 to 1500 lines), and with a redundancy built in.

Wouldn't be best to consolidate all these list.

Scratch this idea, I just rather have one list, and maybe a website to see all the list together where I can type in my question to find an answer quickly (sort of like Dell's support center) -Original Message- From: Gyrion, Larry M.

I believe the US and Canada use the same methods for voice services, maybe we could make it a North America list serv instead.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] simple over view of the process
I purchased a $299 kit from the VOIP Connection http://www.thevoipconnection.com/store/catalog/product_16215_Asterisk_St arter_Kit.html It comes with a install CD, book about Astrerisk, a quad line card, and a VoIP phone. Seems like a reasonable price to pay to sample it. I will be installing it to a desktop computer and creating four analog lines to use on the line card. If all goes well we will then move to build a Asterisk system to handle 1500 lines (including 650-700 of those converted back to analog). The cost of doing this is way less than bringing in another Nortel , Cisco, or Avaya PBX. Of course my concern is to create a redundancy type system. With Nortel I am use to their failover system.

Basically, I see that the Asterisk PBX systems can run on linux and seems to offer the engine base that is needed for the SIP clients to connect. Additionally, it seems that the various hardware (of which I have no idea) if installed into the server will allow the SIP clients to communicate with analog lines. What inexpensive hardware is need to set up a basic system?

Very true. -Original Message- From: Denis Galvão - iSolve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 17, 2005 2:08 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Any interest in a Canadian Asterisk mailing list? Here in Brazil we are creating our language email list. For us it will be great because we have a lot of different terms, technologies of US and Canada, even Europe. I think that for brazillians, the first place to solve a problem could be the brazillian list, after that a universal list(this asterisk-users list) could be the second choice. The local lists will be a good point to share local expiriences. I dont think that Canada and US have a huge difference of telecom standards like Brazil and US... Denis.

Just some thoughts here I see the value of regional lists primarily as relates to non-technical items such as local service providers, regulatory issues, and so forth. For the technical stuff, I much prefer the single list. I don't mind at all reading about POTS lines in the UK, or the joys of ISDN in the EU. Maybe one day the sheer volume of messages will make that untenable, but for now I love the international flavour of the list. As VoIP becomes ubiquitous, the value of regional lists might be less and less relevant.
