Because anything Asterisk based goes to crap in terms of options. I am all for options and I don't mind learning. I've seen FusionPBX years ago too in my quest, but that's a one man shop. 2600hz has a good group of techies from the industry for awhile - Kamalio tie in does not hurt at all.

What do you mean? What's the issue with FreePBX? What options is it lacking that you are seeing from other players?

2600Hz is the vendor here. Kazoo is the actual product name, which is better as 2600Hz is a bizarre name for a project.

It's likely good as PIAF and Elastix have been negatives for a while now just confusing people about FreePBX.
Pretty sure @JaredBusch still runs PIAF.

@agarcia.wier said in 2600hz.org - Open Source VoIP:
I think now is the time to invest in true open source alternative to Asterisk engine
How is the Asterisk engine not open source? It's released under the GPL meaning you can do whatever you want with the code base. FreePBX remains one of the, if not the, very best implementations of an Asterisk distribution that is also 100% open source. I'm just not sure where you're going with the last few threads about this.

As of November, I no longer have any production PIAF systems.

2600Hz is a bizarre name for anything... should be 26kHz.

Asterisk and FreePBX are open source, but Schmooze made changes regarding things such as third party module signing and requirements related to commercial modules that soured the mood with some in the FOSS telephony community.
While I am not a fan of some of the things that Ward Mundy and his team does with the PIAF, one cannot deny their enthusiasm for FOSS telephony solutions over the years.

@scottalanmiller & @RojoLoco it most certainly is not a strange name for a telephony project.

Yeah, not a name to get market share or branding with, but it is a perfectly logical name for telephony.

Ah. Learned something new. But as an audio guy, my point was that it would be 26k vs. 2600. Didn't realize that was a significant frequency in telephony.

26k is upper bound of hearing right?

More like 20k for men, 22k~ish for women. 26k is supersonic. Human hearing range is basically 20Hz-20kHz. And to "hear" a 20Hz wave, you have to be about 17m away from the sound source (the wave is literally that long from compression to rarefaction).

I knew 20-20k was normal. thus ends my normally retained knowledge of human hearing.

Well thanks to my bionic ears, I can hear all that you can... and more. The only advantage is that as I get older, I hear [comprehend] better, not worse, ha ha.

Most people's hearing falls off around 19k. Teenagers and children can hear up to a possible 20k. 2600 was probably chosen because people can't hear it (the dog, cat, or ferret tho..)

I don't really follow him much. It seems odd that he'd just throw in the towel, though.

Hey, you're right! I can't math today, metric is hard. But a 2.6k wave would be solidly in the middle of the frequency range of a standard POTS phone.
