Elastix telephony workshop in Toronto; Wed Nov 26th, 2008

[Simon P. Ditner]

This Wednesday, November 26th, the Toronto Asterisk Users Group invites all in 
the area to join us for a telephony workshop and talk sponsored by Sangoma 
Inc.[1]

Jose Landivar, co-founder of PaloSanto Solutions[2], creators of Elastix, will 
be running a "getting started" workshop on Elastix, followed by a talk 
discussing how it differs from other Asterisk-based distributions, and a road 
map of the project's future.

Elastix[3] is an open source asterisk-based linux telephony appliance that 
integrates tools such as OpenFire IM Server, SugarCRM, mail services, and 
billing software into a single, easy-to-use interface. It also adds its own set 
of utilities and allows for the creation of third party modules.

Asterisk[4] is an open source telephony engine that allows you to 
integrate traditional telephone systems with VoIP, run applications such 
as IVR's Voicemail, and dial-around services, as well as host your own 
applications written in any number of programing languages.
