ALE CENTRAL MTG. for Thurs., March 20th, 2008
Our third Thursday, March 20th, 7:30pm
ALE Central meeting presentation will be
Bringing Asterisk on Campus
with presenter
Brian MacLeod
Synopsis:
For Georgia Gwinnett College, the question was not whether to switch
to IP telephony or not, but whether to continue doing IP telephony on
a $40,000/year proprietary system or to migrate to an open source
system where support is less than $1,000/year. While the choice looks
obvious, the path was not always this clear. Brian will present the
road GGC followed from idea to fully functional, operation critical
status.
Bio:
Brian MacLeod is a Linux System Administrator and developing VOIP geek
at Georgia Gwinnett College. He has worked for several University
System of Georgia institutions that have called Lawrenceville home.
