followers of the riveting1 opensim-dev mailing list will have
noticed that i “culled” AsteriskVoiceModule and SIPVoiceModule
yesterday. the reason is quite simple: with the recent addition of the
FreeSwitchVoiceModule we now have a voice module
that works! and works without having to replace the SLVoice
client that is part of the standard SecondLife® clients2
AsteriskVoiceModule which ansgar schmidt and i started last
year — and which, together with work that alan
webb and i did for the soon-to-be-released VivoxVoiceModule,
provided the basis for the excellent work rob smart did for
FreeSwitchVoiceModule — never really led to a complete voice
solution as it required replacing SLVoice on the client side. rob
figured out that FreeSwitch supported the same voice
codecs that SLVoice was using and started experimenting. though
FreeSwitchVoiceModule doesn’t (yet?) do spatial voice nor speaker
indication it already works together quite nicely with SLVoice, so
we decided to drop AsteriskVoice (and its little brother SIPVoice) from the opensim tree.
Extremely nice stuff, Dr Scofield. I look forward to trying this out

I tried this out yesterday with Teravus – it works suprisingly well.
