Hello

This looks like a very interesting project - one I will follow closely.

I would like Freeswitch integration for an upcoming project, which I noticed in your FAQ seems to be in your plans.

I've taken a quick look at the twilio integration, does that use an existing twilio PHP wrapper? Is something similar required to communicate with Freeswitch?

Hello smoothify,

Thanks for your interest in VoIP Drupal!

We are actively pursuing somebody to help us with the implementation of the FreeSWITCH module. Last week, at DrupalCon Chicago, we met with a few candidates. Hopefully, soon we will be able to check that item from our "to do" list. Let us know if you know of anyone, ok?

Basically, VoIP Drupal will require the implementation of a RESTful API for FreeSWITCH. Both Twilio and Tropo already offer such API, and that made the implementation of those modules much easier. The twilio.php file that you referred to on your message is just a wrapper to make the Twilio communication easier to manage from PHP programs.

Let us know if you have any other questions or comments, ok?

The recently announced Plivo framework for FreeSWITCH should fit nicely. Best of all it is open source. I've been looking for an alternative to Asterisk since the controversy over Digium's release of Asterisk 1.8.4. See http://www.plivo.org/2011/05/26/launch-of-plivo-an-open-source-alternati... for more details about Plivo.

Thanks for your note, dude4linux!

We're already in touch with the Plivo team and should start experimenting with their platform soon.

Hope that works!
