Introducing Firefly</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After many months of development, I'm
pleased to announced Firefly - an IAX soft phone and
network.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The firefly softphone - free, runs under
windows, allows connection to multiple networks, skinable interface,
connection to firefly network, IAX2 protocol, (SIP in next release),
codecs supported - iLBC, G.711 ulaw/alaw, GSM. - contact lists,
selectable ringtones.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>download from here - <A
href="http://www.virbiage.com/firefly/">http://www.virbiage.com/firefly/</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The firefly network - also free, runs on
an enhanced version of IAX2 (simply uses IAX2 text messages for
customised part), voicemail, text messaging, online presence, ability
to indicate status (available, away, NA). I believe you can connect
using a standard asterisk box but you'll miss out on the extended
features. The network runs on iLBC so unforunately it won't work with
most IAX2 clients (unless you get * to translate)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thousands of people have used it but it's
still regarded in beta, as we are still in heavy development (so
expect a few bugs). It doesn't use iaxcomm as we needed our own
framework to support sip, including our own jitterbuffer. If you don't
wish to connect to the firefly network, click cancel when it asks
you.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Coming soon features<BR>SIP - in alpha,
few bugs outstanding<BR>music onhold - playing mp3s while the other
party is onhold<BR>fast audio - will reduce the latency by
40-50ms<BR>speex - (if anyone wants it?)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Feel free to contact me on or off the
list to report bugs and suggestions. I'll post everytime we release a
new version (probably every week), including fixed bugs and new
features</FONT></DIV>
