IvozProvider is a carrier grade multilevel IP telephony solution exposed to the public network.
Yes. This project is free as in freedom, but not as in beer. Source code is licensed under GPLv3 or later, so you can download, modify and distribute it for free.
We provide a standalone iso to test the solution in a single machine. These environments are not recommended for production. You will also find online docs with detailed information of every section.
Current stable release is called artemis. Stable releases have frozen features, so they won't evolve too much in time. This provides the required stability that telephony solutions demands.
If you're interested in testing newest features, you can use halliday release. Take into account that halliday release is not yet considered stable and bugs can arise, so use it at your own risk.
No. Current design assumes you have at least one public IP address. That address must be present in your network interfaces in order to bind services.
We don't provide any kind of free support for installations. If you have trouble, you can contact our sales department at [email protected] or ask in ivozprovider-users group.
If by any chance you receive support in the group or #ivozprovider Libera.Chat IRC channel by any developer, it's most probably provided during spare time, so be thankful for the people giving part of their time.
If you have a bug or something that you can prove it's not working as it should, don't hesitate to open an issue in Github project. We appreciate well documented bug reports that help to improve the software quality.
If you have a feature request that you think it would be helpful for others, don't hesitate to open an issue in github project. Take into account that we're a small development team and features won't be scheduled unless someone pays for them. If you're interested in sponsoring a feature, please contact with our sales department at [email protected] Otherwise, the feature won't be implemented unless one of our clients finds it useful.
We use english for reporting Github issues and IRC. It's not our native language so we apologize in advance for grammatical errors, but we think it's the best way to share knowledge and information with everyone.
Currently there is no documentation for distributed installations. This requires quite some time and we are a small team with lots of tasks scheduled. If you need advice or support for distributed installations, please contact our sales department at [email protected] so we can schedule it properly.
We do free (as in freedom) software because we think it's the best way to produce high quality products. Our code is public so everyone can see what's exactly being done during each process. But this software is shipped without any kind of warranty and project members have no debt with others but their clients, so avoid any kind of order or imposition.
If solution doesn't fulfill your requirements or you find a solution that fits better, use it. If you are interested in improving the software, consider sponsoring any missing feature.
Free projects are usually managed by small developers teams, so we highly appreciate all contributions. There are all kind of different tasks you can contribute, from coding to documenting or translating.
If you're opening a Pull request in Github, take a look to development docs for commits and branches naming. Also, try to listen to provided suggestions from project developers: they strive to make the software as good as possible.
Currently there is no documentation for creating a development environment.
