You can watch the commit log for the svn branch that I'm using for it :-) I'm just trying to get to a point where I'm ready to have people start testing with it. As of late, I have been tied down with other projects, but hopefully I'll get a few more minutes to work on this sometime soon. As far as status goes, I have message forwarding working between machines now, so it should work to some level or another. I have *not* stress tested it or done any real production testing on it yet, so if you wish to try it, you will have to do it realizing that there are most likely going to be some bugs to work out. I still have a few outstanding issues with regards to IP link setup and teardown that I need to get straightened out (i.e. what happens if a machine dies, etc) Matthew Fredrickson Digium, Inc. > > Regards > M.Shirazi > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- > > asterisk-ss7 mailing list > To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-ss7
