Recently I read a book for VoIP and at some point I found reference to OenSER project.

After visiting the site www.openser.org I was welcomed with the message that OpenSER is now OpenSIPS as you can see from the screenshot.

Why the project forked?

Some answers could be found on the initial post on opensips users mail list:

Hello everybody,

A new project – OpenSIPs (Open SIP Server) – became active today(post is dated Mon Aug 4 11:29:30 CEST 2008), with its first release (OpenSIPS 1.4.0).

What is OpenSIPS about?

OpenSER History:
—————-
Voice System started the OpenSER project with a vision of running an open project that will deliver a professional software. Along the years Voice System was the main contributor and sustainer of the OpenSER
project, organizing conferences, events and tutorials, all aiming to consolidate OpenSER as a top solution for industry VoIP.

OpenSER Issues:
—————

In the past time, several critical problems related to OpenSER project were identified by us:
– the need for a new reliable release – delayed or low-quality releases are affecting the credibility of the project
– degradation of the project quality – testing, performance measurements and code quality control are overlooked
– lack of the control, management and coordination of the project – critical project issues could not be handled or solved

OpenSIPS Solutions:
——————–

OpenSIPS is a continuation of the OpenSER project – we have a moral obligation to develop and deliver the high quality and reliable software we envisioned when starting OpenSER.

1) a 6 months release cycle, but with no compromise for the technical issues
2) extensive testing and performance measurements before each major release
3) contributions are guaranteed to be answered and integrated (if accepted) in less than 1 month
4) code review, architecture control and integrated design for software quality
5) technical management with a strict developer hierarchy and developer cooperation to prevent deadlocks or un-availabilities
6) intellectual honesty by having decisions taken on value-based criteria and arguments.

It seems that the development is sponsored by voice-system.ro?!

And the development of opensips is continued as Kamailio.

Maybe we will see better product development after this fork or … – only time will show.

I’ll experiment a bit….

Until now only registered users were able to leave comments.

The reason behind was a automated bot leaving 100-s of comments on my blog.

But on other side even when I want to leave a comment in somebody’s blog I resist to do it if registration is required. So I’ve decided to try and see if bot will break to the antispam protection.

Enjoy.

Actually the book is called: “How to become an SEO Ninja”.

For the people who do not know what is SEO:

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is the process of improving WEB site from point of view of search engines to bring more and better quality traffic.

“Go-OO” – what is that?

Actually that was my first reaction when I read about this project.

And the answer pops on the first page of the web site.

“Your office suite. Better, Faster, Freerer.”

Go-OO is based on OpenOffice.org code, but the developpers added:

• interoperability – better OpenXML support, Works filter, VBA scripting
• functionality – better Chinese support, interface polishing
• speed – 20-30% faster

More information could be found on their discover page.
