Cool beans, Jeff!  Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Self Introduction

2008-02-12 Thread Jared Smith
Hi!  I'm Jared Smith, and I'm finally getting around to introducing
myself.  I've been a long-time lurker on the IRC channel and the mailing
list.

OK, so what do you need to know about me?  Let's see... I've been using
Linux professionally for about ten years now, and was using various
flavors of UNIX before that.  I managed over 6500 Linux boxes at a
previous employer, and racked a fair number of those myself.  I've
pretty much "been there, done that, and still have the scars to prove
it" when it comes to managing IT infrastructure and data centers.

I'm also big into VoIP (and even co-authored an O'Reilly book on
Asterisk), so I'm hoping to help out jcollie and mmcgrath in that area
as well.  I'm currently working for Digium (the company behind Asterisk)
as their Community Relations Manager and lead trainer.

I've also done quite a bit of database work (mostly PostgreSQL) and some
programming in various languages.

Anyhoo, enough about me... 

-Jared Smith (jsmith on IRC)

I'm happy to help out with this where I can, but I don't want to step on
jcollie's toes, as he's done an excellent job so far.

Is there a ticket listing the things that still need to be done?  Are
there parts I can help with?

I'm almost always available and willing to help out with Asterisk
stuff... Let me know if/when you need any help, and I'd be willing to
put in some time to add all kinds of Asterisk coolness.

This appears to be working very well.

Do we have numeric extensions that map to these conference rooms?  Not
everyone is able to dial a SIP URI, so adding numeric equivalents is an
important thing to consider.

I can help with some of that.

I've done this before with ICES, but it shouldn't be too hard to get
working with flumotion.  Didn't we already have this working (at least
duct-taped together) before?

What about letting people create their own dynamic conference rooms as
needed?

I'm also happy to help walk people through setting up Asterisk.  Grab me
on IRC -- my nick is "jsmith".
