[asterisk-dev] AstriDevCon 2007 Summary

[Kevin P. Fleming]

First, I'd like to thank everyone who participated in AstriDevCon 2007; 
the event was definitely a success!

We spent a great deal of time in architectural and planning discussions, 
and the results of those discussions will be posted here by various 
people over the next week or two. We also got some nice presentations on 
various Asterisk and Asterisk-related projects, and in addition Tom 
Cross from IBM ISS spent 90 minutes talking about how we can do a better 
job writing code and designing Asterisk to avoid security vulnerabilities.

I also want to personally thank the host organization (Georgia Institute 
of Technology Information Security Center - GTISC) for allowing us to 
use their fabulous facilities... the conference rooms were first-rate, 
the WiFi access was superb and they even arranged for comfortable 
weather for our walking trips between the Klaus building and the hotel :-)

We had some corporate sponsors that helped defray the costs of the 
event, including Digium (obviously), but also:

LumenVox (http://www.lumenvox.com)
NetXUSA (http://www.netxusa.com)
Aheeva (http://www.aheeva.com)
Vyatta (http://www.vyatta.com)

Finally, I'd like to thank everyone who attended, and their 
sponsors/employers/etc. who allowed them to join a group of Asterisk 
geeks and hang out for a week... (alphabetical order)
