I have updated the project page with: - all the suggestions for what we have to install - team members http://www.iptel.org/sip_express_bundle_sip_service_in_15_minutes g-)

Wow, Great, Seems the balling is rolling forward and there is great feedback from every one.
- Just want to confirm that I am in.
- I would also vote for CentOS and vmware.
- How about sipp, which can be a good performance testing tool.
- I hope we will be using latest release (or at least 2nst last
stable release) of kernel, mysql, apache, php, perl etc. The reason I mentioned this is that, serweb had issues with Apache 2.x and php 5.x.
Cheers, -Jai

Packaging and deployment >Something I noted about the project. While I am all for a virtual image for testing purposes and getting things up and running while we're creating this project, I think the ultimate goal should be something like an ISO that's ready to go on a server. There are many of us in the systems world who have not bought into the whole virtualisation marketing gimmick when it comes to system deployment, and for the casual home user who's less comfortable with using VMs for an actual production system (which is, to be honest, a lot of people), it might be easier in the long term to get everything the way we want it and then make an ISO that's ready to drop onto whatever machine with all the components we need. BUT... first things first. :) We need a list of everything that's going to be in this bundle. yes , we need to look at common man and make this installation process and to be menu driven, while installation going on. My assumptions are (at the basic level): -SER 2.0 (in whatever state it's in atm) -SERWeb -RTPProxy -SEMS we need to look at Media proxy also as a base, since it has some monitoring tools. Secondary (but no less important) items that are a must-have: -MySQL (I'm voting for 5 series here, but that will require my patch for the mysql code in SER 2.0) -Apache (req'd for SERweb) -SIPsak -ngrep (invaluable for debugging as well as learning) yes all the tools needed Optional: -mediaproxy -freeradius -radiusclient (for those who want to mesh SER with an existing radius infrastructure perhaps) yes for the accurate billing we need to consider Radius Thoughts? we also need to look at modular solution. and documentation for the same. Like each service in one server. ram _______________________________________________ Serusers mailing list Serusers@lists.iptel.org <mailto:Serusers@lists.iptel.org> http://lists.iptel.org/mailman/listinfo/serusers
