Jim Dude: Writer of the software Asterisk and The various projects thereof

Jim Dude and the Asterisk software – he is in a wheel chair

Just got off of the phone with Jim Dude.  He is quite a character and I will be talking to him more.   Sold a microcontroller board to him as I was moving out of Saint Louis.

Asterisk was a functional concept, but had no real way of becoming a practical useful thing, since it didnt, at that time, have a concept of being able to talk directly (or very well indirectly for that matter, being that there wasnt much, if any, in the way of practical VOIP hardware available) to any Telecom hardware (phones, lines, etc). Its marriage with the Zapata Telephony system concept and hardware/driver/ library design and interface allowed it to grow to be a real switch, that could talk to real telephones, lines, etc.

Introduction to BlackPhone – The NSA Proof Phone

You knew it was only a matter of time.  However how do you know an operating system as complex as Linux is ever really secure?

Silent Circle and Geeksphone have partnered to combine best-of-breed hardware with all the skills and experience necessary to offer BLACKPHONE, the world's first smartphone which prioritizes the user's privacy and control.

OpenVoIP: An Open Peer-to-Peer VoIP and IM System

OpenVOIP

Welcome to OpenVoIP, an open source peer-to-peer VoIP and IM system of ~1000 nodes running on ~300 PlanetLab machines. OpenVoIP runs Peer-to-Peer Protocol (P2PP) which can be used to implement well-known DHTs or unstructured protocols. Unlike OpenDHT, where it was only possible to put/get the data, we allow non-PlanetLab nodes to become part of our overlay. This means that you can download the P2PP executable for Windows XP, Linux, or OpenWengo-P2PP SIP phone and connect to our overlay. Your node will provide routing and storage services to the overlay.

This software project appears to be in the experimental phase.
