Potentially, this could be particularly interesting for press briefings. Effective PR involves inviting a small group of journalists to briefings, usually just prior to launches, or to put out PR fires. When the group is small, listen/talk can be open to everyone. For larger groups, it's listen-only and a moderator handles a question queue, opening talk to key questioners in turn. There are of course lots of commercial services for this type of thing, but it would be great if we had that available to us.

Re: [IAEP] voip.sugarlabs.org
Surely it would make more sense to take it down a level and use telepathy as the comms insftracture and from there use SIP where needed, but also chat, MUC, dbus-dbus tubes, video and audio group streaming and everything else xmpp is so good at. A communications box if you will, with it being kinda like the master with the jabber server installed on it? food for thought?

A communications box if you will, with it being kinda like the master with the jabber server installed on it? food for thought? The telepathy stack uses SIP for VOIP anyway. Even though SIP is a peer-to-peer technology, you need a PBX such as Asterisk in the middle if you're going to do conferencing. Daf, one of the Collabora devs, told me last week that they're working on P2P SIP conferencing. Probably an implementation of Jingle? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jingle_%28protocol%29 Multi-user chat without any infrastructure would be amazing, but I doubt it can be made scale beyond a small number of nodes. And I doubt we can find mature clients at this time. For now, I'd suggest setting up a traditional Asterisk PBX and switch to XMPP/Jingle when things mature a little. Daf of course might come up with a better idea. BTW: did you know that every Sunjammer account also includes a Jabber account too? the JID is usern...@sugarlabs.org and the password is the same of the LDAP password. SSL/TLS is mandatory. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)

[IAEP] voip.sugarlabs.org
A few months ago, I've set up a VOIP box based on Trixbox (http://www.trixbox.org/) with the goal of providing conference rooms for the Sugar community, especially the less geeky teams. Since then, this VM has been sitting idle on bender (and later on treehouse), waiting for me to find some time to finish testing it and transition it into production. Would anyone want to take over and complete the work form here? I know Trixbox very well because I've used it in production for 3-4 years in Italy. It used to be a bit messy and kludgy, but very reliable and feature-complete. The ideal candidate for this job would would have strong background on Asterisk and PBX-side SIP in general, but enthusiasm for this technology can certainly compensate lack of experience. I can offer guidance on IRC and via VOIP (when it works). Anyone interested please send your resume to syst...@lists.sugarlabs.org complete with your IRC contact information. Pay: $0.00/h non-negotiable. Benefits: free VOIP and shell access on prestigious server, work with dynamic team in a professionally stimulating environment, help save the world, and all that. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
